Do please enlighten me! Tell me how Node changes the underlying
ECMAScript specification and gives true Unicode support. In
particular, I would expect the length of a string to be based on
either code points or combining character sequences, and indexing
(including slicing) should be based on the same thing. It should not
be possible to split a character during iteration over a string.
(Whether you iterate over "é" as a single character or as two (U+0065
U+0301) is a matter of debate, and I'd accept both answers as
correct.)
