Description
The AsciiExt
trait has make_ascii_uppercase
and make_ascii_lowercase
methods that take &mut self
. This trait is implemented for str
, but there is currently no easy way to get a &mut str
value.
&mut str
is rarely useful, but ASCII case mapping is one of the rare cases. The intent (see rust-lang/rust#22024 (comment)) was that String
would implement DerefMut
, making these methods usable on it through deref to &mut str
. But that last step has not been done yet. Is it time to do it? Is there a reason not to?
