I was wondering the same thing the other day.  The only thing I could
imagine is that it's to allow a new transfer-coding to be defined in the
future which uses EOF as the message-length delimiter, or something like
that. 

Section 3.6 uses the same phrase; it is a little confusing.  In 4.4 you
could almost read it to mean that presence of "Connection: close" would
mean that a T-E header should be ignored, which is presumably not the 
intent (and certainly not the practice).
