I noticed startsWith should be similarly optimized. If anyone 
would want to work on that, it would be great.

The range version of startsWith (which I suspect is the most 
commonly used one) is optimized beautifully. This leaves the 
(rather trivial) single element one and the "one haystack, any of 
these needles" one.
