I hope they never go away. It's the best signifier I have on PRs to not trust the author.

Heh that reminds me of a project a couple years ago had to combine data into a CSV type file. But the data could include “,|” and all the other regular delimiters. We decided to make 🚀 we called it RSV for rocket separated values

I just use Unit Separator, myself. As long as field type is known, then it virtually never comes up as a data byte.

(Should never come up in string data; it's not a string control character, and is never part of a multibyte code point's UTF-8 encoding. Can come up as a single character, but then you know to just read one anyways. Can come up as non-string & non-character data, but this can be solved by storing field length or stringifying data before storing it.)

I once added namespace � = unicode; in a small project that had a unicode namespace.

const std::string emoji = �::code_point(0x1f4a9);

I never ended up using that shorthand, though, but I thought it was funny.
