Thanks a lot for bringing this to WG attention.
It seems that I misread that point when I first wrote the draft.
Actually the same is true for IE.
I corrected the ABNF in the new version to reflect IE and Mozilla behavior.
Best regards and thanks a lot for catching this!

From 
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-websec-x-frame-options-02#section-2.2 :

"The values are specified as ABNF strings, and therefore are case-insensitive"

and the relevant methods in the code use 
"[header-value].LowerCaseEqualsLiteral(...)" so they match case-insensitively.

One note, I think the spec is incorrect in stating that FF/Chrome support 
colons in 2.2.2, Chrome has no support at all for Allow-From (just my pending 
patch which has the same behavior as the one that led to this bug), and 
obviously colons are not supported here either (and the intent seems to be to 
not permit them).

So I believe <http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-websec-x-frame-options-02#section-2.2.2> needs to be fixed; in the best case by just removing it.

Best regards, Julian
