Agreed, only GMT is allowed on the wire. I still believe it's
potentially useful, and not unsafe, to transform a non-GMT timestamp
into a valid GMT timestamp before putting it on the wire.
(I'm also not opposed to removing such a header entirely; I just don't
think that's as useful.)
In my opinion, turning a completely invalid string (e.g.
"Last-Modified: blahblahblah") into a current Last-Modified stamp
*is* interpretation. We'd be attaching a Last-Modified value to a
resource that doesn't really deserve one.
That is precisely what the spec calls us to do.
Can you provide a section? I don't know 723x to the extent I knew 2616 yet.
