That's not going to work without a glyph-aware library anyway; even if you are working with actual codepoint arrays, you can't simply insert a codepoint into that array and have a correct unicode string as the result.

Same for splitting.
That works just fine on UTF-8 encoded strings with C stdlib functions if your delimiters are 7-bit ASCII characters (/,.:; etc...).
