Let's be really clear. What do you consider in this case to be the
"value"? The lexical form or the value-space form? Because if I sent
you something like:
Header: value1,
value2
The lexical value is one thing, but there is no obligation on a stack
or intermediary to preserve obs-fold. The value-space form is simply
"value1, value2" with a single space replacing all that extra fluff.
