Most of it seems sane, except for my comment below...

This isn't a comment about what you have done, so please don't be
offended, but I don't like it when multiple values are jammed into one
field, it may be ok for human readability but I'd need to look up what
7, 8 and 9 are to know so it really isn't that human readable either.
Not to mention that it becomes a nightmare if you ever want to do
something sane with the data.

I feel/think something better should be done, eg

whc:criteria:7=yes
whc:criteria:8=yes
whc:criteria:9=yes
