Maybe a version of maskutils unit based on UnicodeString should also

This seems so redundant. I still need to study the new FPC 3.0 string
handling, but I was hoping such duplication of implementations would not
be necessary with newer FPC versions. We don't see such rubbish
[duplication of code with various string types] in Java or C# or Qt, so
why must we put up with it in Object Pascal.
I think Bart meant that the maskutils unit should simply use unicodestring.
Given that it almost surely will need to deal with $ and € etc, that seems
like a better approach.
