>From Alex R on list:

AFAICT, the top-level parsing algorithm in Section 3 is missing a
catch-all rule for trailing garbage. For example, right now, the
following malformed Item header field will pass all checks and return a
"valid" String to the caller. It should throw a "trailing garbage" error
instead.

 Foo: "valid" garbage!

When fixing that, tolerating trailing BWS may be a good idea.
