Anyone who has the same problem: I found
std.range.primitives.hasSlicing
(https://dlang.org/phobos/std_range_primitives.html#hasSlicing) which does exactly what I want!
Note that because strings are treated as ranges of dchar
regardless of what their actual character type is, arrays of
char and wchar (so-called "narrow" strings) are not consider to
have slicing or random access by the traits in std.range. So,
hasSlicing!string is false, though for anything other than an
array of char or wchar, it will do what you're looking for,
whereas for arrays of char or wchar, you really shouldn't be
using the slice operator on them without knowing that they're
what you're operating on so that you take the Unicode issues
into account correctly.

Yes and that was the next step of my problem, it turned out that
it was already taken into account by hasSlicing!
Thank you very much!
