Will there be a simple reference counted WideString on all platforms as the
current FPC UnicodeString is?
WideString could be reference counted on all platforms and the current not
reference counted Windows WideString could be renamed to OLEString in order
applications which don't need different encodings in strings don't suffer
from the performance and memory requirement penalty of the complicated
multi-encoding-multi-char-size string.
