I have long ago come to the opposite conclusion. An array of 'char'
should act like any other array. If you want a sequence of 'dchar' that
is internally stored as an array of 'char', don't call it 'char[]'.
I have to agree with Rainer here. I think maybe string shouldn't just be
an immutable(char)[]. I'd rather see it as a struct that wraps a char[]
and presents the appropriate interface.
Ditto for wchar.
