Henri Yandell commented on LANG-510:
------------------------------------

Though...

Could have an indexOf method for CharSequence that IF both string and substring 
are String, then it casts to String. That has a pretty minimal cost. Equally 
could add optimized code for StrBuilder and StringBuffer too.

That's tempting.

> Convert StringUtils API to take CharSequence

> Wherever possible, use CharSequence and not String in the StringUtils API.
> substring can go to subSequence inside code. The general substring method can 
> be replaced with a subSequence method and substring deprecated(?). One 
> question is whether to implement a CharSequence.indexOf type method. Given 
> that it's merely a walking method(?!?), this might be quite handy and would 
> allow a bunch of StringUtils methods to move over.
