IMO we simply have to agree that Length() is a physical property,
This would result in many errors with "old style" trained users and when
compiling "old style" software. So I vote for dropping the ambiguously
named "length()" function completely and introduce two new functions
with different names.
Length() cannot be dropped, because it's required for streaming (byte
counts, buffer sizes...). I also see no real need for a CharCount or
similar function, in real life code.
