Hey all!
I picked up SR-2627 (https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-2627) from the Swift JIRA project. The ticket states: > UnicodeScalar.utf16 does not have access modifier and therefore is internal but should be public, as well as UnicodeScalar.UTF16View. The ticket is written in a way that makes it seem as though this change would match the behavior of APIs such as the UTF accessors on `String`. Additionally, `UnicodeScalar.utf16` and `Unicodescalar.UTF16View` seem to be created in `UnicodeScalar.swift`, but not used elsewhere, indicating that these properties were intended to be exposed to developers as part of the stdlib. After submitting a pull request to implement this (https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/4929, Maxim Moiseev and Michael Gottesman mentioned that since this does modify the public API, a proposal should go through swift-evolution to address this. I wanted to kick off the discussion here and get feedback from the mailing list. Looking forward to chatting about this! Eli Perkins
