MartBuilder will be able to do the above from the 0.6 release (the
capability is already present in the head branch of CVS), but it has to
put the dmlist and dminfo columns into a separate dimension each. So
you'd end up with the main table, the dimension foo, and two further
dimensions foo_dmlist and foo_dminfo.

The method to do this is a combination of the new Replicate Dimension
feature and the existing Concat Relation feature.

Otherwise, an identical result.

cheers,
Richard
