What about:
struct String {
string items;
alias items this;

And add the needed functions you wish to have in string and it will
still work in existing functions that operate on immutable(char)[]
Fortunately you can essentially achieve the above by simply writing free
functions that take a string or a ref string as their first argument.
Then you can use str.foo(args) as an alternative for foo(str, args).
How do we make this work?
auto str = "hello world";
foreach(c; str)
assert(is(typeof(c) == dchar));
