Thx Dennis for your reply.
I got it working and I'd be interested to see this feature committed in the 
next Hippo CMS 6.05.xx version (it's scheduled for next week right?); is it 
possible?

I generated the attached patches on the tagged version 'Release-CMS-v6_05_02' 
of the following files

editor/src/site/explorer/transformers/propform/proplist2form.xsl
editor/src/site/explorer/transformers/propform/proplist2binding.xsl

Let me know what you think.
Met vriendelijke groet,
