Your 'ö' examples will NOT work reliably with auto-decoded code points,
and for nearly the same reason that they won't work with code units; you
would have to use byGrapheme.
They do work per spec: find this code point. It would be surprising if
'ö' were found but the string were positioned at a different code point.
The fact that you still don't get that, even after a dozen plus attempts
by the community to explain the difference, makes you unfit to direct
Phobos' Unicode support.
Well there's gotta be a reason why my basic comprehension is under
constant scrutiny whereas yours is safe.
Please, either go study Unicode until you
really understand it, or delegate this issue to someone else.
Would be happy to. To whom would I delegate?
