Yea, somehow, I suspected it was because there's no formal spec :)

I guess technically it's an enhancement, but given that configuration dictated 
by third-parties can break the environment, it does feel like a bug. 

For example, I can't use a python app to authenticate to github via netrc 
because of how heroku says I have to configure my netrc.

Also, there are probably two subtly different issues:
1. a machine with a password but no login breaks parsing
2. a machine with an unrecognized key breaks parsing
