Based on [1], it seems that it would be worth it to reserve some of the codes for future use (like the usr codes). Additionally, we should consider if we want to limit ourselves to 256 codes, to make sure we do not overflow someone. If this is needed, we can reserve 255 to indicate overflow as mentioned in [2].
