I think it pretty much has to work.

my_utf8_string.append( std::istream_iterator<char>(f), std::istream_iterator<char>() ); is the proper spelling. Or, if you prefer, my_utf8_string.insert( my_utf8_string.end(), std::istream_iterator<char>(f), std::istream_iterator<char>() ); Character by character push_back loops just aren't cool.
