STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment:

I didn't read the whole spec, only read quickly the invalid option.

The idead behind this issue is to be able to read a file generated by GNU tar 
which keeps the filename unchanged if it's not encodable to utf8. (z-pax.tar 
attachment was generated by GNU tar).
