For the record, I won't demand this - though it would be nice.

So if there is an updated regex *excluding* the subtraction, can you see if people agree on this during today's call? I would then do the edit for allowed characters and we could close the issue-67 next week.
[PNC]: I can do a final rework to the regex based on the new ABNF since I started it, and I'm more familiar with it, so as to close the issue next week once and for all :)

Best,

Felix

Cheers,
Pablo.
