By that I want to stress what Jonathan M Davis said
"Unless the string types match, there's no way around it."
You should absolutely realize that that means that when the
string types (widths) *do* match, then "search" (which includes
all flavors in phobos) will NOT decode.
Heck, if you do a "string, element" search, eg find("my phrase",
someDchar), then phobos will *encode* someDchar into a correctly
sized string, and then do a full non-decoding string-string
search, which is actually much faster than the naive decoding
search.
