What's your basis for this assertion? We (authors of draft-liman-tld-names) I think are pretty comfortable asserting that some implementors may have understood the phrase [...] to be a protocol restriction. That seems fairly easy to support, and perhaps the text in 1123 itself is a sufficient existence proof. I don't know how to defend an assertion in absolute terms that this understanding is categorically wrong. How would you do it?
