Why shouldnt we require people to use legal url's?

If we are conforming to standards, and I feel we should where possible (they
are there for a reason.. by your argument why should dirname("/foo/") return
/ rather than /foo, which, to most of us is the most obvious but as you
pointed out earlier the standards say so..).

If I come from some other language or where ever and expect test=1;2;3 to
work someway and it works differently to the standards "just because it does
and we dont want to ram standards down peoples throats" its going to piss me
off. I agree it should be optional but should be defaulted to on.
