I have had a client asking me to add a new type of preset user
interface control for them, one where you can select multiple values from
a list and this then ends up in a tag with a comma-separated list. Like so:
<multiselect key="colour" text="Colour" values="red,blue,green,yellow"
default="" delete_if_empty="true" />
The user can then e.g. select "red" and "yellow" which creates the tag
"colour=red,yellow".
It should be colour=red;yellow according to current usage.
I made some suggestions for expanding the existing preset syntax here:

The client would be ok with building this into JOSM proper. I am unsure -
of course I'll happily contribute the code but in OSM we don't really want
to encourage comma- (or semicolon-) separated tag values.
Really? They have become a fact of life, at least until/unless we make some
significant tagging schema changes, which seemed more like hacks last time
we discussed them.
