Yes. It seems that using lists is much more complex for the rendering,
as it involves adding commas and and words only where needed
programatically.

<note role="seealso">
 <function>print</function>, and
 <function>echo</function>
</note>

does not look that nice, as

<somelisttag role="seealso">
 <function>print</function>
 <function>echo</function>
</somelisttag>

but the note form allows us to do things like this:

<note role="seealso">
 <function>print</function>, and
 the notes on the <link linkend="secutity.cgi">CGI
 security page</link>
</note>

Either we choose "note" or "somelisttag", it is better
than the current style. I have not seen too many
comments about this on the list so far...
