  The main drawback I see with this approach is that it copes very
badly with empty values (where the value is the empty sequence)
and with sequences (where a value can be a sequence).  And the
behaviour can be very surprising (and hard to debug) when one
passes an empty sequence or a sequence of more than one items by
mistake.

  As Mike said, maps would be perfect here...
