AFAIU ATM in FPC is String synonym for AnsiString (as in previos
versions of Delphi)
Are there any plans to change meaning of String type ?
(like Delphi to UnicodeString , or UTF8String?)
If/when this is done, it will only be with a compiler switch or
directive.

That won't be enough, since that would not change the relevant units
and
classes to such type. (e.g. tstringlist would remain defined
ansistring)
If it's a D2009-style ansistring, does that matter?
