Could you post a cite for the standard that says it's legal, please? I'd
be interested in seeing it.

It's certainly not legal from my reading of either of RFCs 822 or 2822,
because the "group" syntax occurs as the expansion of "address", and the
angle-addr (which have the < addr-spec > rule) occurs as an expansion of
"mailbox" which is an alternative to "group" in the "address" expansion.

(this is at the bottom of page 15 of RFC2822)

I didn't go to find it in 822, but as I recall, it's pretty similar.
