Also, what other string operations do we need? I'm thinking reg-ex.
So now we have a `filter()` steps for regex, but then what about pattern
matching selection. Well, thats not range, but something new. Now you have all
your string manipulation features spread out across numerous steps. Is this
good? I don't know. Seems that all primitive operations should be grouped via
predicate and operators else we will just be building a new data flow language
(steps steps steps steps) for primitives and all the operations you want to do
on them.
