The reason that it bails out there is to prevent crashes later on.   
Usually invalid fields is a sign of tag corruption and trying to  
continue to parse things after its detected corruption is usually a  
recipe for segfaults.  The question really becomes, "How often would  
being less strict lead to segfaults?"
