Description

My question here is, where and how do you use the `Text` that you make? In ICU, a UText is primarily useful for interfacing with APIs like the BreakIterator and regex engine. It doesn't do a whole lot on its own, except maybe providing some more UTF-8 to UTF-16 conversions, but you already have that functionality in `rust_icu_ustring`.
