I forgot to mention:

Section breaks can be implemented using tabs as well, with VT instead of HT.

There exist more control codes that can be used for various 
formatting/folding purposes. A closer look at the ASCII table reveals:
   VT: vertical tab, usable for sections
   SI, SO: shift in/out, could be used for folding or regions
   GS, RS, US: group/record/unit separators, usable for table formatting
