3.1.3, multiple strings in a DNS record:

Maybe not exactly your case, but close enough for readers to 
get the idea.  

Ah, that's what you ment. FWIW, I think 3.1.3 is written to prevent
the following from happening:

"v=spf1 a m" "x ptr ?all" -> "v=spf1 a m x ptr ?all".


My example, "v=spf1" "a" "mx" "-all", is somewhat different. Most
important is the fact that there's no space between v=spf1 and a.
People believing in the "be liberal in what you accept" filosophy
will still have to pretend they received "v=spf1 a mx -all".
