there is mention of 0x8d in FSC-0079, FSC-0081.01A... more importantly, they
are also mentioned in FTS-0001 so they were in use on or before 1995... i'm
pretty sure they were in use up to a decade before... they may have been
brought in by folks using wordstar and similar editors to write their
messages...

either way, there are here and there was needed some workarounds for them to be
 used as actual visible characters in those languages that use them for such...
 mainly the workarounds being to ignore them and not use them as wordwrap
marks... especially since wordwrapping has basically been moved to the reader's
 side of the fence instead of the writer's...
