Comment (by Cigaes):

 Yes, it does matter.

 If a common software is spewing badly formatted files, then these files
 will be found around, and supporting them has a rather high priority.

 If no common software is polluting an environment that is already very
 polluted by nonstandard files, we have no reason to. Remember that
 supporting badly formatted files has a cost: it makes detection more
 ambiguous.

 So: just write the numbers. Apply the first half of the Postel principle
 to yourself. Whether we decide to apply the second half on our side is
 none of your concern if you do.
