Re: No subclassing of UnicodeString???

We do not try especially hard to make it difficult to subclass UnicodeString. The statement in the 
API docs means mostly that we have not tested whether subclassing is effectively possible.

Also, most of UnicodeString's methods are not virtual, so if you have a base class pointer to your 
subclass object, it won't call your subclass methods.
