What hits me here is that I had an incorrect program with built-in

strings.
This is counterintuitive to correct unicode handling throughout the
std library,
and even more to the complementary operation of appending any char
type to strings.
I understand the issue, but I don't think it's resolvable. It's a lot
like the signed/unsigned issue. Java got rid of it by simply not having
any unsigned types.
Can't we implement a new string type that people can choose to use if
they want. It will hide all the Unicode details that has been brought up
by this thread.
