How so? Oh wait, section 2.2.4 rule 1, overriding the ABNF spec in the
same document, which, as it turns out, is just for show.
Who writes specifications like this, anyway?.. Ah.
I'm almost not surprised now by the way Michael stomps over the

Tell me guys, please, does somebody really understand this workflow 'as
it is' -- like what 'goes' and what 'goes not'?
