No, the standard explicitly enumerates the things in the system that
can destroy the space at here; as long a program does not use any of
these things, it can use the UNUSED space for any purpose.  IIRC we
had a discussion about this several months ago, and there is code
which relies on this which would be significantly more cumbersome to
write if this usage were non-standard.
