There is nothing to stop the Japanese using

Existing software stops them from doing this. I have repeatedly stated
on this list that you cannot use 2022 in headers.


I think we should have evidence of
software in use today that is broken by quoted phrases before we even
consider taking such potential problems into account.

How about using this mailing list for some header experiments? (If
people are concerned about core dumps and other problems, we could set
up a separate list for experiments.)
