If it creates a compelling reason for its use... IMHO if it's just a
wrapper around the string functions it's not all that useful as it
would add a *lot* of overhead to string manipulation (object
instantiation, etc.) for such simple and PHP intrinsic functionality.
Could you show us the source? If it does have lots of convenience
methods and such we may let it in as a helper, should people need/want
it.
