As for variable handling, I think the solution is to ensure that on the

results in,
foo=1
bar=2

of the same variable..
Yes, that sounds like the way to go. My previous message implied that
the var string should only contain unique variable names, but I see
that that would be needlessly complicated.
This is an interesting approach; I like it better than the property
block. I'm sure we will think of other useful applications for
cumulative properties, too (conversely, there'll probably be some side
effect that will turn around and bite us at some point, though I can't
think what it would be).
