what's the problem with some implementations making a (potentially

one, and as far as I can see, no TLD actually does it.

Besides, throwing PermError in this case is hardly justifiable
from what the spec says.

Fine, we're making progress, so you consider PermError as bad idea.
That leaves "ignore single labels" or "try to match as always".

The difference is, I am _interpreting_ the spec, whereas you are proposing 
to _change_ it (by specifying things that weren't previously specified).
