Hi,

As you all describe strings as "sequences" of bytes or whatever, I proposed
:
sequence<char>
and
fixed_sequence<char> // but maybe fixed is not clear enough about the
immutability?

I often find that using the most describing word in the description of what
we want to name is helpful. That said I'm might miss something that makes
this proposition wrong as I'm not a native english speaker.
