  A scheme of this sort will effectively put a halt to up/down loading of
binary files unless you also looked for a pause before and after the
sequence.  I have a Datec-212 Autodial which will disconnect after receiving
three cntl-D's in a row.  While this is no problem most of the time, it is
disconcerting to have your line dropped half way through a long session.
A two character sequence will happen much faster (by two orders of magnitude)!
