"Invalid UTF-8 sequence".

Attempts to pass ubyte also didn't work out.

I doubt using anything except (d,w)string is supported or 
possible.

current regex engine assumes that you are using UTF-8 encoded text. i
really want regex engine to support user-supplied input ranges instead,
so decoding can be done by range (and regex engine can work on
anything, not only on strings), but i'm not ready for that challenge
yet. maybe i'll try to do something with it in 2015. ;-)
