Comment (by pramsey):

 Enforcing validity on input is a little controversial, and also can screw
 people over (since we've had this behaviour for a while). This is one of
 the reasons you can sneak invalid structure in via WKB but not via WKT.
 Question is whether geojson users, like WKB/shapefile loaders, have a use
 case that requires storing invalid things from time-to-time. I'd err on
 the side of "not changing things", since we've had this behaviour for a
 long time.
