Take a look at https://github.com/AdaCore/VSS
Ideas behind this library is close to ideas of types separation in Python3. String is a Virtual_String, byte sequence is Stream_Element_Vector. Need to convert byte stream to string or back - use Virtual_String_Encoder/Virtual_String_Decoder.
I think ((Wide_)Wide_)(Character|String) is obsolete for modern systems and programming languages; more cleaner types and API is a requirement now. The only case when old character/string types is really makes value is low resources embedded systems; in other cases their use generates a lot of hidden issues, which is very hard to detect.
