Somewhere the change from string to utf8string must be made.
??? The "new string" paradigm is all about changing from utf8string (and
other such types) to string. Isn't it ?
The big decision was to do either (a) multiple string types with
dedicated encoding or (b) a single string type with dynamic encoding.
While I don't dare to decide which way is the better one, the decision
to do (b) has now finally been taken. So - like it or not - we should
stick to it in all projects and do away with types like ANSIString,
utf8string etc.
