Kenji Hara:
Or, uniform construction for built-in types would be another
better way.
auto c = char('a');
auto w = wchar('a');
auto d = dchar('a');
auto x = char('à'); // compile-time error
Yes, uniform construction syntax for all types seems a good idea. But the suffixes for chars, as the strings, could be a good idea any way, it's shorter, and it's symmetric with strings.
