>But for all bindings that will be returned as an array of two elements.

I don't think that's a good assumption. Why should we impose constraints on any 
set of bindings that can offer a better way? For example, the Java bindings 
return a DisplaySize class. Some bindings might wish to use a list rather than 
an array. We should be as informative as we can when it comes to informing 
clients. They can still ignore isArray and assume an array if count is greater 
than 1.

>Just like for for BRLAPI_PARAM_COMPUTER_BRAILLE_ROWS_MASK we will return
>an array of 544 elements, and for BRLAPI_PARAM_COMPUTER_BRAILLE_ROW_CELLS
>an array of 256 elements.

Yes, because those are fixed sizes. There are other arrays, however, for which 
the count is 0 because the returned size is unknown, i.e. it's variable.
