I understand that the type "String" will change it's behavior (please 
correct me if I'm wrong).
I understand that Lazarus might use assumptions regarding "String"s that 
might not be applicable any more (please correct me if I'm wrong).

OTOH I understand that Lazarus will happily follow the move to 
"NewStrings" and some later version will use them as a decent 
improvement regarding the current "UTF-8 code stored in a variable of a 
type called ANSIString" paradigm" (please correct me if I'm wrong).
