HTML 5 multiple attribute

Hi

With the HTML 5 multiple attribute [1] <input> elements now can have
multiple values. Right now only the first one is passed to the
callback block because WACallback >> #evaluateWithFieldValues: only
uses the first one. What do people think would be the best way to
solve this? I don't really want to create new tag classes for multiple
valued tags. What I can think of is a "multiple" instance variable in
WAFormInputTag and WAValueCallback. Not very nice, but would work.

Cheers
Philippe

Re: HTML 5 multiple attribute

What about a special callback function that sets the attribute and
that uses a special subclass of WAValueCallback?

Ok, I went for this a method named #multipleValuesCallback:. who's
argument will be a sequenceable collection. Reviews and comments are
welcome. To reflect it's experimental nature I committed it only to
the 3.1 branch to so far.

Cheers
