If one wants a view of text, one needs to manually construct the view via 'view = textview(st, start, stop)' or some equivalent spelling. After that, any operations on a view returns views
Given Guido's sensitivity about potential misuses of views, it might be better if operations on views didn't return views, so that you would have to be explicit about creating views at all stages.
