Good point.  I personally favor A, but would be fine with B.

I'd be interested in input from other implementors; if there's a
constituency for B then fine, but if we're all going to allow
coexistence anyway, we might as well specify it that way.

With respect to the precedence rule, I would use MUST rather than SHOULD.
