It is just Python - Just use on the calee script an inner function - one to be publicly exposed on the PDB taking user arguments, and another one internal meant to be called from other Python functions .
On this, simply use a Python list. You can manipulate `sys.path` in order to be able to import other installed GIMP scripts PY files. Just don't expect the Procedural Database way of calling parameters, essentially created more than 20 years ago with Scheme/lisp in mind to be able to handle the flexibility one have in modern Python parameter passing. If you need the user to feed in several numbers on the UI, and wants to use GIMP-FU, (and not design your own custom GTK UI), my suggestion is to use a string, and tell the user to separate the nubmers by spaces or commas - on the Python side, you just split and convert the argument. Other than that, yes, GIMp-Fu should be able to handle these PDB arrays as arguments - despite the workarounds I just described. Could you can fill a bug in bugzilla about that?
