At the very least, throwing if the upper byte is non-zero seems like
the right thing to do to prevent silent data loss.
That works for me.
More concretely, this means that combined with the rules coming from HTTP
a SYNTAX_ERR exception would be raised for the value argument if one of
the characters has a code point larger than U+00FF, if the code point is
U+007F, or if the code point is smaller than U+0020 but is not U+0009. If
this is all ok the lower bytes are collected as the new header value.
Does this sound acceptable to implementors?
