Description
I'm opening this issue due to @Bodigrim's advice:
The people at Kowainik (cc @vrom911, @chshersh) have produced very good ergonomics when it comes to string types conversion. Functions like `toText`, `toLText`, `toString`, etc. Even risky conversion is taken care of, with errors (https://hackage.haskell.org/package/relude-0.7.0.0/docs/Relude-String-Conversion.html#t:ToText).
I think that this mechanism has its place in `text`, since it depends on `base` (for `String`), and `bytestring`.
