It seems like the best way to go is to use dchar for strings (i.e. not have
the struct as a template) as I need real characters for intersection purposes.
When it comes to lookup, any input will need converting to dchars (I expect
this can be done on the fly).
In C++ you would use iterators to do this kind of input conversion. I don't
know what the technique is in D.

like
import std.array;
string s;
dchar first = s.front;
dchar last = s.back;
or
import std.utf
string s;
int old_offset;
int offset = stride(s, old_offset)
dchar d = decode(s, old_offset + offset);
