How about borrowing somthing from mime?

Anyhow, I think the sequence must start with some "unusual sequence" so
that it most probably can not mistakenly occur within a non-i18n
message. For example something like (wihtout quotes) "@@$$##". This at
the very beginning (byte 0) of the MSG part means that it is an
i18n-enabled payload.

Does this make sense?
