How do I convert a `string` containing Unicode escape sequences
such as "\u" into UTF-8?

Ali explained that "\u" is already UTF-8.
But if you actually want to interpret such escape sequences from user input
or some such, then

std.conv.parseEscape includes this logic.
But why is it private?

It's already UTF-8 because it's a 'string'. :)
import std.stdio;
void main() {
auto s = "\u1234";
foreach (codeUnit; s) {

I think parsing only Unicode escape sequences is not a common task. You
usually need to parse some larger language of which escape sequences are
only a part. For example, parsing JSON or XML are common tasks, and we
