Yes, that is true.  

Another possibility is use indicator from ascii control
block. For example byte 01. Does not collide with existing use.

That is
Date:1470205476
on HTTP/1 (but probaly not visible; first character
after ':' is byte 01 (ctrl-A)).

( I think that someone suggested that already. )

( byte 01 seems to be valid TEXT on ABNF ? )
