    do the old tests still work?  and do we want to be this strict or make best 
effort to understand -- e.g. if this is `ConfigKey<Object>` we can have a 
method e.g. `getAssertions(ASSERT_STATUS)` which retrieves it and creates a 
list of maps, but which would be more forgiving, e.g. if it's a single map we 
could wrap it in a list.
    
    this is new so i don't mind either way.  i prefer making best-efforts to 
parse people's intentions and warning but still working if they're wrong 
(especially if we're changing a syntax which people are already using, as we 
are here).  however other people in the community prefer fail fast even on user 
input so either is fine...
