I was in the process of doing just that.

I first started writing my own byDchar but then used
std.utf.byDchar as you suggest. However, I had to resort to
1) Adding attributes to function calls which I know some are
unsafe (see assumeHasAttribs() below). For example, I don't
think getc() should be pure. (?) Also, how could all of its
functions be nothrow? Is byDchar() is asking too much of its
users?
