A large number of highly specific methods in the "Helper" class are still missing from the GodotString API. Some (non-exhaustive) examples are:
godot_string_format_with_custom_placeholder
godot_string_lpad_with_custom_character
godot_string_bigrams
godot_string_casecmp_to
godot_string_nocasecmp_to
godot_string_naturalnocasecmp_to
...etc
Wrappers for these are in principle nice to have for the sake of completeness, but history of actual usage has shown that people usually prefer to use the native String type which has much better interoperability with the rest of the ecosystem.
Created during survey of commented code (#377).
