Re: [whatwg/url] Basic URL parse requires stripping tabs before host state is entered, allowing bad hosts (Issue #829)

The fact that all browsers (it's not just Chrome - Firefox, Opera, obviously Edge) interpret this parsing step in the requirement differently indicates that developers cope with this requirement everywhere. 

All I'm asking is for the spec to provide guidance in when whitespace should be stripped, which should be accompanied by a note with a use case (can you think of one? I cannot), and when it is better to refrain from it, which would cover all usual programmatic uses of URLs, like the broken URL parser in Python.
