Actually, all but the most recent versions don't enforce it.  The stable
version (2.0.25) does not.  Version 2.1.3 does, though (I have not tried
versions in between)

Good documentation is hard to come by.  Thanks for your efforts. =)  I feel
that there will be quite a few more people asking for help with this as
people convert from 2.0.X to 2.1.X .  I managed to muddle my way through
with Google and my experience, but newer users may be a bit more confused.
