Title says it all really. I had to use an std::string in one place because I needed to modify it quickly and with less hassle than using .replace() - and Glib::ustring won't let me get a reference to perform such modification.
The documentation states "No reference return; use replace() <https://developer.gnome.org/glibmm/stable/classGlib_1_1ustring.html#a0f0c9b5aaad58279d3ac87a86a173f4a> to write characters." but does not explain why, nor does the commit log: these comments were added way back in the initial revision. So I'm wondering whether there's really a reason for this, or if it is just something that no one has wanted to change (until now!)
