We should have a control to determine the length of a string (in workflows)

When trying to extract a substring from a string in the workflow, it's difficult to find the length of any given string.

Currently you either need to split the string into individual letters in a collection and count the items, or append a 'trigger' and find that element within the string, using the index.

Having a dedicated "Find length of string" operator would really help.
