I thought the special values rule was to detect a special value, and
all other values are seens as URLs and can be redirected to.

The spec can state that number-only default names are reserved for
future use and may not be used, but I would rather not make them an
exception to the special value rule.

Libravatar should provide the MM image (preferably in svg format or
high resolution png) for all implementations to use freely, so that they
can just use the "official" MM image instead of having to draw it
themselves.

That's fine.
