Splitting at delimiter characters has always been a source for bugs and
inconsistencies. I think you have discovered one more, so feel free to
open a bug report in Jira.

Note that there is currently ongoing work on a redesigned version 2.0 of
Commons Configuration. There has also been some changes in the handling
of list delimiters. I hope that the new design makes it easier to
customize splitting behavior.
