The issue is that char[] is treated as an auto-decoding bi-directional 
range by Phobos, not an array.

To get Phobos to behave, you can use byCodeUnit:

import std.utf: byCodeUnit;

c = c.byCodeUnit.remove(1).source;

I see, so it means that only char is affected, gotcha

Well, char[] and wchar[]. dchar[] is treated as an array by Phobos. But 
calling byCodeUnit on a dchar array should work just like an array as 
well, so using it is the most generic solution.
