They were not added until SCI01. SCI0 games with other languages using them were converted to SCI01. SCI1 (SCI VGA) will support them.

So that would allow Japanese text, as in that one QfG shot from the Rare Games threads?

It would allow any language you want, allowing you to have tens of thousands of characters rather than just 127 or so.
