This code

import std.array;
import std.conv;
import std.utf;

class RefRange(C)
{
     property bool empty() { return _str.empty; }
     property C front() { return _str[0]; }
    void popFront() { _str = _str[1 .. $]; }
     property C back() { return _str[$ - 1]; }
    void popBack() { _str = _str[0 .. $ - 1]; }
     property auto save() { return new RefRange(_str); }
     property size_t length() { return _str.length; }

    this(inout(C)[] str)
    {
        _str = to!(C[])(str);
    }

    C[] _str;
}

void main()
{
    auto asciiStr = "hello world";
    auto asciiRange = new RefRange!char(asciiStr);
    //auto asii = asciiStr;
    size_t index = 1;
    assert(asciiRange.decodeFront(index) == 'h');
    assert(asciiRange.length == asciiStr.length);

    auto uniStr = "プログラミング";
    auto uniRange = new RefRange!char(uniStr);
    //auto uniRange = uniStr;
    index = 3;
    assert(uniRange.decodeFront(index) == 'プ');
    assert(uniRange.length == uniStr.length);
}

gives this error when it runs

----------------

The last assertion fails. If you swap which lines are commented out so that
strings are used instead of RefRange, then the code succeeds. The problem is
that decodeFront calls popFront when dealing with unicode, and it doesn't save,
so depending on what's passed to it, it may or may not pop elements. It's more
efficient to save internally in the cases where it needs to rather than ask the
caller to do so, so the correct fix is to make it save if it's going to pop
anything.

I think this should be the other way around. decodeFront should ALWAYS alter
its input.

This is the only way to make it work with input ranges.

New pull request: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/1129

It makes it so that decodeFront takes its argument by ref, since that's the
only way to make it consistent across range types, much as it would ideally act
like decode and never pop off any elements.

This change makes it so that decodeFront takes its range by ref and pops
off the code units that it decodes (unlike decode). It pretty much has
to do that, since it supports input ranges, and they can't do anything
else.

Fix Issue 9456 -  decodeFront is inconsistent in whether it pops elements off
of the range or not
