+// ParseRequest builds a gus.Request by reading a finger protocol request.
+//
+// At the time of writing, there is no firm standard on how to represent finger
+// queries as URLs (the finger protocol itself predates URLs entirely), but there
+// are a few helpful resources to go from.
+// - The lynx browser supports finger URLs and documents the forms they may take:
+// https://lynx.invisible-island.net/lynx_help/lynx_url_support.html#finger_url
+// - There is an IETF draft:
+// https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-uri-url-finger
+//
+// As this function builds a *gus.Request (which is mostly a wrapper around a URL)
+// from nothing but an io.Reader, it doesn't have the context of the hostname which
+// the receiving server was hosting. So it only has the host component if it
+// arrived in the body of the query in the form username@hostname. Bear in mind that
+// in gus handlers, request objects will also carry a reference to the server so
+// that hostname is always available as request.Server.Hostname().
+//
+// The primary deviation from the IETF draft is that a query-specified host becomes
+// the Host section of the URL, rather than remaining in the Path. Where the IETF draft
+// would consider a query of "tjp@ctrl-c.club\r\n" to be "finger:/tjp@ctrl-c.club", this
+// function will parse it into "finger://ctrl-c.club/tjp". This decision to separate the
+// query-specified host from the username is intended to make it easier to avoid
+// inadvertently acting as a jump host for example with:
+// `exec.Command("/usr/bin/finger", request.Path[1:])`.
+//
+// Consistent with the IETF draft, the /W whois switch is dropped and not represented
+// in the URL at all.
+//
+// In accordance with the recommendation of RFC 1288 section 3.2.1
+// (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1288#section-3.2.1), any queries which
+// include a jump-host (user@host1@host2) are rejected with the ForwardingDenied error.
