> What if there is #COMMA, in one of the fields (but no #COMMA#)?

What should happen? Since #COMMA is not #COMMA#, it gets not replaced, because it does not match.

Please keep in mind, that I replied to suni's very specific question and did not try to start a discussion about general parser theory. In practice, we find a lot of files that do not respect the grammar, but still need to find a way to make the data accessible.
