This would be a fine standard. However, it doesn't have to be part of the
_Unicode_ standard, and I don't think it belongs as a normative part of
Unicode. As minimal as it may be, it still falls into the domain of file
formats and "higher-level protocol".
It's a tribute to the success of Unicode that people want to piggyback on
it's success to solve closely related problems.
