That sounds good, but I still do not understand the numeric identifier.

It sounds like this is the alternative to provide an array as value?

So instead of:

     x-tags: ( foo, bar )

I would do:

     x-tags-1: foo
     x-tags-2: bar

Is this correct? Can you give an example of keys where you supply  
multiple values?
