Re: sso tradeoffs


This is just a heads up, and probably an obvious one at that, but I thought I'd err on the side of repetitiveness:

When we do an sso string (as the official std::string), we at the same time need an extension non-mutable string whose copy constructor can't throw (probably via refcounting). This will be needed in the <stdexcept> classes (which currently use std::string).

Hmm... unless we can get the exception throwing mechanism in the language to promise to always move instead of copy...
