TUS does not prevent anyone to put noncharacter code points in Unicode
strings. As a matter of fact, p. 23 of TUS 3.0 reads "U+FFFF is reserved for
private program use as a sentinel or other signal." I would expect this to
hold true for the noncharacters that were introduced later too. It may not
fit your needs if you're looking for a character, but it is available for
use by applications.
