Basically, for automation, the <key> is usually doomed to be the callerid.
A pair of <family><key> may have only one <value>. I.e there's no need
to delete an entry with a pair just to change the value, you just
"put" THE pair with the "new<value>" and it's overwritten.
Probably, if you use different <family> ...

However you might do :
database put CF/123456  23456,34567,45678
And while: 
exten => s,1,Set(temp=${DB(CF/${ARG1})})
exten => s,n,Set(temp1=${CUT(temp,\,,1)}); if macro
exten => s,n,Set(temp2=${CUT(temp,\,,2)})
exten => s,n,Set(temp3=${CUT(temp,\,,3)})
exten => 
s,n,Dial(LOCAL/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&LOCAL/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&LOCAL/[EMAIL 
PROTECTED],15,r)
...

Another shortcut is with only one <value> and timeout 15 secs:
database put CF/123456  23456|15
First it rings for 15 secs to 23456and in case they'd forgot to
disable CF, starts ringing 123456.

Hope the above will give you even more ideas.
