Section 3.6.1 says:

   g=  Granularity of the key (plain-text; OPTIONAL, default is "*").
       ....  Wildcarding allows matching for addresses such as
       "user+*" or "*-offer".  An empty "g=" value never matches any
       addresses.

It should say:

   g=  Granularity of the key (plain-text; OPTIONAL, default is "*").
       ....  Wildcarding allows matching for addresses such as
       "user+*", "*-offer", or "foo*bar". An empty "g=" value never 
       matches any addresses.

Notes:

The ABNF allows "*" in the middle (but only one), and this should
be shown in the examples, too.
