Given a propertied string, how can I clear _all_ its properties?
There's a buffer-substring-no-properties, but I can't find anything
like substring-no-properties. remove-text-properties requires that I
know the set of possible properties in advance, which I don't (or
rather, the set is infinite in my case).

You could use `string-match' followed by `match-string-no-properties' on
it.

How about (set-text-properties 0 (length string) nil string) ?
