As a humble Perl user, I'd be happy with "length", "substr", "index"
etc. doing their stuff on these funny "string" things - but they better
be consistent!

That reminds me of the CGI script that sends out UTF8 encoded data and
should send a Content-Length header that must measure length() in
octets. Is it that, what you mean with being consistent, Ian? ;-)
