Auto-decoding should be avoided when possible.
I guess something like
whole.byDchar().startsWith(part.byDchar())
is preferred right?
I don't get it? If you use "byDchar", you are *explicitly*
decoding. How is that any better? If anything, you are
*preventing* the (many) opportunities phobos has to *avoid*
decoding when it can...
If you really want to avoid decoding, use either "representation"
which will do char[] => ubyte[] conversion, or "byCodeUnit",
which will create a range that returns single elements (IMO,
"byCodeUnit" should be prefered over "byChar", as it infers the
correct width).
