You could define your own range of chars, for example, a
"rope". Or, you want to store your string in a deterministic

units, but you'd still need them to be interpreted your range
as a sequence of code points. This is where `byDchar` would
come in handy.
There is a fair bit of discrepancy between a "char[]", and a
range where `ElementType!R` is `char`, which is quite
unfortunate. There have been talks of killing auto-decode, in
which case, a range of chars would have the same behavior as a
char[].
Ok, thanks again.
