Hopefully.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liber_Linteus

"There are 230 lines of text, with 1200 legible words. Black ink has
been used for the main text, and red ink for lines and diacritics."

Considering there are so few Etruscan texts left and that they may
never be translated, it would be a shame to lose this kind of
contextual information, especially if it happened to be useful in
deciphering the text.
