If you need this it requires changes in the parser + JCR processing
code to define a way to mark such a statement as targeting a
multi-value property and process it accordingly.
The jcr-repoinit code at [1] does:
if (values.size() > 1) {
Value[] pValues = convertToValues(values);
n.setProperty(pName, pValues, type);
} else {
Value pValue = convertToValue(values.get(0));
n.setProperty(pName, pValue, type);
}
So it clearly needs more than one value to create a multi-value
property, and there's no way to express that currently in the reponit
language.
If you agree, please create a SLING- ticket with your requirements,
and patches are welcome of course!
