Hmm.
Well, I can't say I've ever found a use for putting either a C0 or a C1 control into a text file, beyond the usual CR, LF and TAB. My code also often considers FF to be whitespace, although I've never actually (knowingly) encountered it in a real text file.
I have. It shows up in a lot of old text files as a page separator character. It's also occasionally used as a document separator when someone wants to stuff multiple XML documents in the same file.
