that describes std::string too.

all that Glib::ustring gives you are UTF-8-aware iterators.

It also uses UTF-8 *storage*, which makes your strings four times shorter (on Unix, twice shorter on Windows) if they are mostly-ASCII.

And it maps better with how Glib and Gtk work with strings (Unicode in UTF-8 instead of array-of-wchar_t).
