RFC 1123 has always been mandatory for Internet connected hosts. Valid characters for a hostname are very clearly defined in that ancient document. Enforcement (or lack there of) is another issue. DNS is not the right place to enforce it IMHO, it's a host-level thing, an operating system thing. Blame Apple and Microsoft (and others) for not getting it right, most especially in regards to underscores. Until they change, we all are stuck with the mess.
