New Comment:
Thank you. I know about substr() -- which is rather cumbersome
compared with the notation I suggested -- but I don't know what you
mean by {}.
I cannot find this notation explainined in the PHP Manual (at least not
in the pages about array functions, about the array type, nor in the
pages about operators).
Where is {} usage described?

Already supported by {} and substr.

The now very old North Star BASIC had a wonderful feature that I'd love
to see in PHP, which was the ability to access strings using
subscripts, rather like subscripting into an array, except even better
since it allowed ranges to be subscripted just as easily as single
characters in the strings.
Examples:
$string = "My String";
echo $string[5]; // returns "r"
echo $string[0,]; // returns "My String"
echo $string[3,5]; // returns "Str"
echo $string[,3]; // returns "My S"
