Well, that's why I asked. If somebody was about to commit a radically
new from-the-ground-up implementation tomorrow, I would guess that it
would make more sense to concentrate on other tasks than to fix the
existing System.String implementation.

Agree, adding new tests is independent of whatever happens to the
implementation. I will definitely have a look at what behavior of String
causes my CharEnumerator tests to fail.
