and the consequence of that is there is a lot of code in GDAL that could

I agree with this as a principle, but looking at C++20 specifically I don't
see opportunity for significant code removal on the order of C++11 or
C++17. This thread brings up cpl::contains, cpl::starts_with, and
cpl::ends_with.
I have long been looking forward to std::span.
Not only does it make some things easier to write safely,
but static analysis options like
clang++ -Wunsafe-buffer-usage
are only useful with std::span.
