As I said, I'm trying to reserve plain "foo" for people who are okay
with variable-length argument lists, so they can define it as

(define foo
  (case-lambda
    ((x) (foo/whole x))
    ((x start) (foo/indices x start (string-length x)))
    ((x start end) (foo/indices x start end))))

or the same with foo/cursors if they prefer that.
But it's not part of the SRFI (though I could provide trivial libraries
for that in the repo).
