That being said, I'm not happy with
extension-param = token [ "=" token ]
In HTTP header fields, parameters usually support both token and
quoted-string form.
Right.
Making this special means that existing header field parser code can't be
easily re-used.
Well, not exaclty as any parser supporting tokens and quoted-strings
would also parse "just" tokens :)
However I agree that making new/custom grammar for a simple header
makes no sense.
