Well, you do need to worry, if you want to enforce the language spec
(although these are pretty weak and fuzzy)
Right know we seems to care about padding of fixed-length String on
Init only (Dim)... I have not stumbled upon code that cares about that
on assign and other manipulations...

iow

Dim foo as STRING*10 = ""
dim bar as STRING "hello"

foo = bar

what should be foo? "hello" or "hello     "

I still fail to see how these details of BASIC's STRING*n are related to the different max length limits of String vs. OUString.
