+ * KEY=VALUE,... syntax:
+ *
+ * key-vals = [ key-val { ',' key-val } [ ',' ] ]
+ * key-val = key '=' val
+ * key = key-fragment { '.' key-fragment }
+ * key-fragment = / [^=,.]* /
+ * val = { / [^,]* / | ',,' }
+ *
+ * Semantics defined by reduction to JSON:
+ *
+ * key-vals defines a tree of objects rooted at R
+ * where for each key-val = key-fragment . ... = val in key-vals
+ * R op key-fragment op ... = val'
+ * where (left-associative) op is member reference L.key-fragment
+ * val' is val with ',,' replaced by ','
+ * and only R may be empty.
+ *
+ * Duplicate keys are permitted; all but the last one are ignored.
+ *
+ * The equations must have a solution. Counter-example: a.b=1,a=2
+ * doesn't have one, because R.a must be an object to satisfy a.b=1
+ * and a string to satisfy a=2.
+ *
+ * The length of any key-fragment must be between 1 and 127.
+ *
+ * Design flaw: there is no way to denote an empty non-root object.
+ * While interpreting "key absent" as empty object seems natural
+ * (removing a key-val from the input string removes the member when
+ * there are more, so why not when it's the last), it doesn't work:
+ * "key absent" already means "optional object absent", which isn't
+ * the same as "empty object present".
+ *
+ * Additional syntax for use with an implied key:
+ *
+ * key-vals-ik = val-no-key [ ',' key-vals ]
+ * val-no-key = / [^=,]* /
+ *
+ * where no-key is syntactic sugar for implied-key=val-no-key.
+ *
+ * TODO support lists
+ * TODO support key-fragment with __RFQDN_ prefix (downstream extensions)
