First of all, printf shouldn't be used! There's writef and it's superior
to printf in any way!
Second of all, if the zero-termination of literals are to be removed,
the literals will no longer be accepted as a pointer to a character.
The appropriate type mismatch error will force the user to use toUTF8z
to get ht e zero-terminated utf-8 version of the original string.
In case it's a literal, one could use the compile-time version of
toUTF8z to avoid run-time overhead.
This all doesn't sound like a bad idea to me. I don't see any security
or performance flaws in this scheme.
