Often you need the index and often you need the byte position. This can be remedied with an enumerator using a record: type TUTF8Enummy = record c: UTF8Char; ByteIndex: SizeInt; UTF8Index: SizeInt; end; TUTF8StringEnumerator = class ... public constructor Create(const A: UTF8String); function Current: TUTF8Enummy; function MoveNext: Boolean; end; ... var s: UTF8String; ch: UTF8Char; begin for ch in s do Writeln(ch.UTF8Index, ': ', ch.c,' at byte ',ch.ByteIndex); end. The compiler already supports such constructs. It seems this is even more powerful and useful than the proposed 'index' extension.
