[ddlm-group] Handling of null byte in CIF2

I hope this already has a simple answer. What is the status of a zero byte (i.e. value 0) in a CIF ? Is it handled clearly in the current draft specification, or do we need specifically to exclude it as an acceptable character, or otherwise make a comment on how to handle it? When looking at what I did in the original vcif, I find the man page states unhelpfully "Embedded nulls in an input file will confuse the program"! Thanks for a swift enlightenment.
