Right, I just wanted to make sure you were aware of the reputation of std::string with COW. It's not great ;-) That said, maybe it's not such a bad idea. Multiple threads make it harder to get right, but perhaps not intrinsically worse than heap allocation + copy. I'll have to mull on that for a while.
