string-split

There are many similar questions, but apparently no perfect match, that's why I'm asking.

I'd like to split a random string (e.g. 123xx456yy789) by a list of string delimiters (e.g. xx, yy) and include the delimiters in the result (here: 123, xx, 456, yy, 789).

Good performance is a nice bonus. Regex should be avoided, if possible.

The dynamic type in C# 4.0 is a welcome addition to the language.
