My little +1 for key:subkey=*

In free text like this thread, several key:subkey=* may look more heavy and
complicated than key=values;separated;by;semicolon.
_However_ I think this is reversed in the context of editors (iD, JOSM...)
and elements lookup [1] where key and values are presented in tables.
+ key:subkey=* tabulated is easier to read
+ key:subkey=* tags are separated, it is slightly easier to select them and
update, to delete one only, to add by copy/paste.
+ key=values;separated;by;semicolon means less typing/keystrokes but this
is much mitigated by use of presets, auto-completion or copy/paste.
