Can you illustrate the pattern you have in mind for such a future approach?

Nothing specific: i simply don't like to add N methods to an abstract
class to support the log of N parameters. I don't like it because you
can't set a real limit, you can't tell 5 objects is enought and 12
objects is too much...
So I think if we want to introduce such a method we should just wait to
require java 5 (maybe soon, as SUN will probably EOL java 2 1.4 when
java 6 will be final) and use real "varargs".
Btw I'm not totally against this "proposal": I just I prefer the other
way. This "proposal" is anyway a "small" refactoring and it is something
mechanical to search&replace current concatenations with a similar
approach and will be also easy to come back to the former solution.
