`front` is a phobos function. Phobos treats char as special
than all other arrays.
Ah, ok. It directly attaches `front` to the string, regardless of
the function. That is the problem.
It was a naive design flaw that nobody has the courage to fix.
... or ask why you're doing range operations on a string in the
first place and see if the behavior actually kinda makes sense
for you.
Because I needed a similar function to `tail` that takes care of
the length and even it's trivial to implement it by myself, I
just thought it's better to use a function that is already there.
