I believe the -05bis already says this (in fact older bis' did as well)...

"The Contact, From and To header fields contain a URL.  If the URL contains
a comma, question mark or semicolon, the URL MUST be enclosed in angle
brackets (< and >).  Any URL parameters are contained within these brackets.
If the URL is not enclosed in angle brackets, any semicolon-delimited
parameters are header-parameters, not URL parameters." (line 3402, -05bis,
PDF version).
