I chose "li" simply for example purposes (it's the HTML tag for a list item).
I think it'd make sense to have the tag imply 'list' somehow - value might be
confusing in that someone might try to use it for a checkpoint argument that
expects a single item:
<arg name="foo">
<value>bar</value>
</arg>
<!-- results in the checkpoint failing since it's expecting a string, not a
list -->
So a tag such as "list_item", or "li" or "list" or something of the sort
might be better. Alternatively, we could have separate <arg> and <arglist>
tags. <arg> would not have any subelements, and <arglist> would allow
subelements (<value> or <item>). That would probably be easier to define in
the schema, as well.
<arg name="foo">bar</arg>
<arglist name="foo_list">
<item>bar1</item>
<item>bar2</item>
</arglist>
I actually like the <arglist> specification better. That
way, <arg> is always a single value and in the cases a list
is expected <arglist> is used. And, it is infact clearer to
define in the schema as well.
I'm going to go with that unless anyone objects.
