We weem to have a discrepancy of expectations.
Postfix documentation is not written up after some discovery process
of how the code works. It's the other way around.
Postfix documentation promises what the implementation will do. It
promises that if you use { and } in the documented manner, then the
implementation will behave as promised. Other uses of { and } are
not covered by the promise, and instead, daemons may fly out of
your nose.
