If it's at a level 4, it's supposed to let other software know there are multibyte characters in the header or message. That is all I can tell from FTS-5003 that it is for.
Whether any software actually makes use of it is another story, though.

Most likely only to display the UTF-8 characters in a comedic fashion, would be my guess. :)
