Thanks for doing this.  The big advantage of the RFC format is
that it's machine readable - have you tried running this through
any ABNF parser libraries?

To use it practically you'd need to tie up some of the loose ends,
e.g. +i and +nan.0 should not parse as symbols.  This is possible
but a little tedious to spec out.
