Ok, great!

This is easy, just check that the memory location does not point to a second part of a surrogate).
Unfortunately that's not the case: from this point of view, QString is
a "mere" container of UTF16 code units. One has access to the
underlying data and can easily build an illegal UTF16 sequence. :-(

Thank you very much! Another one for the list on the homepage ;-)
