Yes- Tomas is working on a new MutableString this week. The idea is to avoid perf hits in the general case (eg a byte string is created and you are doing byte-string like things to it). However we will lazy eval conversions to other string types where necessary. Not sure where things will line up when the new implementation shows up this week or next.
