On IRC we went over the 
(http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTDOC/02+GML+Example) to explain what I was 
talking about with WFS handling multiple values.

We also short listed a bunch of standards to review (since whatever we do needs 
to match these at the end of the day or we will produce *bad* Filter / CQL / 
Style / Query statements).

- WFS 
- SLD
- Filter
- CAT
- CQL (http://www.loc.gov/standards/sru/specs/cql.html)

In particular WFS 2.0 has join predicates that exactly cover the comparison of 
multiple values vs multiple values so I am hopeful we can see the end of this 
topic.
