I miss typedef. I think this is exactly what typedef was intended

struct?

struct Typedef( T ) {
  T payload;
  alias payload this;
}

Usage:

alias Typedef!( int ) myInt;

Is this what you want?

By the way, ASCII is a subset of UTF-8 (that was the whole
point), so there's no reason why 'char[]' can't still be used for
ASCII strings, right?

AS far as I have understood (I am no Unicode guru), in some locales toUpper and toLower map ASCII chars to non-ASCII chars. So ASCII being a strict subset of UTF-8 is not always true.
