The stated problem is a result from some implementors' decisions to implement strings inefficiently. Same problem would occur if a naive implementation uses linked lists to implement vectors for example. Yet the existence of a naive implementation of vectors does not by itself warrant a change in the vectors API, right? What's the real problem that this proposal attempts to solve?
