We call them DIP (D Improvement Proposals) and I think it's a

Eh. I hoped that somewhere in that explosion of discussion on the
topic the problem had been solved and I had just missed it and
merely had to use that.
Also this idea is a bit immature for a DIP... I haven't look at
the regex code beyond the the stack trace it died on.
ie.
* Would this even be a Good Idea for a dip or is it better solve
by another existing means?
* I only inspected and changed one occurrence of decode (the one
that broke) is there any other route in the regex engine that
could throw a UTFException?
* Would adding an additional template parameter with default
break existing code? Or would I have to provide a shim?
