I believe the original argument against was that doing so violates the
RFCs, and therefore potentially obscures a header that actually wanted
that text to appear in the header in conformance with the spec.

However--and my memory on this is as vague as ever--wasn't there an
update to the RFCs that expressly allowed it in headers for which it
wasn't previously allowed?

One certainly might raise the question of why it was originally
excluded from the spec...  There was probably a reason, but I don't
know it.
