This implies the whole thing is a UTF-8 encoded text that is to be
parsed like this:

No, this is a misunderstanding.  There is no requirement that the sequence
*as a whole* is well-formed UTF-8 text.  For example, if the first JSON
text is written only in part for whatever reason (system crash, etc.) to
a log file, the next process can write a 0x1E byte and carry on.

Ok, fair.

Then I think the draft itself should state this in one way or another. If 
nothing else the text you wrote here or a version of it is to go into the 
security considerations section.
