Wouldn't it be simpler to parse under the assumption that any  
property could potentially be plural and ignore all but the first  
instance as makes sense in a given context?  I suspect predefining  
these within formats will unnecessarily restrict use in rare  
instances that could not all be considered in advance.  For example,  
we might assume birthday is a singular property, but some cultures  
celebrate multiple birthdays (e.g. lunar vs. Gregorian calendar).   
Making such assumptions could easily make formats less useful.

Peace,
Scott
