Lets have string of chars, and it contains UTF-8 string.
Does front(str[]) automatically convert first unicode character
to UTF-32 and returns it?
I made a test case and answer is: "Yes, it does!"
May be this make sense. But such implicit conversion confuses
everyone whom I asked.
Therefore, string is not ordinary array (in Phobos context), but
special array with special processing rules.
I'm moving from C++ and often ask myself: "why D has so much
hidden confusing things?"
