Doing single-character substitution on an entire string is open-coded

Andrew, can I get you to take 1/8 through the mm tree? I'm not sure
what the easiest path is for the remaining patches.

This is not super urgent, right?  So we could let 1/8 go into
mainline, and then the rest of the patches could go in the next
release.  That would be the simplest, although it would drag out how
long it would take for strreplace to be used everywhere.
