As for "concatenation of such plain text sequences" where each sequence is in a

does not have a higher-level protocol that can carry metadata about the natural language
of the text sequences?
Indeed, it seems to me that concatenating such sequences *is* in itself
a higher-level protocol. After all, it isn't "plain text" anymore when
you have to suppress printing out some of it. And we already have other
higher-level protocols that can do the job about as efficiently. So at
least this particular application would be a solution to a problem
that's already been solved.
