It is character positions.

In my experience, it is very bad. It is not a conversion, but a
reinterpretation.
Even a str() function would seem bad, unless it has a parameter that
states in which encoding the resulting string is desired. A conversion
from/to std::wstring would seem more useful in most cases.
