We should find out whether this is officially the case
according to the specs of ASCII.  We aren't required to
obey that spec, but we should at least think about doing so.

This page from ASA standard X3.4-1963 shows that 0 and 127 are part of
ASCII, although some of the characters in between weren't defined at
the time:

See also http://www.wps.com/projects/codes/Revised-ASCII/page1.JPG,
the "revised US ASCII code (X3.4-1967)" specification which includes
lowercase characters.  It shows all 128 characters (0 through 127) as
being part of the ASCII code.
