This was asked earlier as well. I guess we probably could put some
centralized macros somewhere.

And have either e.g. a single C2U for
OUString::createFromAscii(RTL_CONSTASCII_USTRINGPARAM(X)) into e.g.
comphelper/inc/comphelper/string.hxx or someplace similar and ditch the
rest of the them and use ::createFromAscii() directly for the non-const
string cases. 

Or have two of them, e.g. CC2U/NC2U for const/non-const. I think I'd
prefer a single one for const strings, and have no macro for the
non-consts. But I'm not really exercised one way or the other.
