    @michael-o IMHO because an invalid header value will push most parsing code 
to the error handling code path. And only by additional rules should that code 
handle it like a valid header in the past. Your chances of client software 
compatibility are higher than by sending an invalid value. This of course is 
not an especially strong argument. I simply wanted to provide a real-world 
example, where it currently does make a difference.
