is there a major reason why platformstl::properties_file uses
basic_string_view, rather than basic_string? My reasons are given in that post.

Is it possible to change it so that std::string is the default, and string_view
can be had by specialisation?

Thanks

P.S. May I ask how you came to hear about STLSoft, and what you're using it for?
