A) For which keys and/or type of data are semicolon lists pertinent?
For keys that can logically have multiple values and that are not the
main/defining key of the object.
B) How can semicolon lists be handled better in the different editors?
If you are using a tag from a preset, iD theorically can create the tag
from any kind of interface.
Not sure about JOSM, but I don't think this would be a show-stopper as long
as semicolons is a better alternative.
By the way, as far as I can tell people here wouldn't say that "always
avoiding semicolons whenever possible" is good practice, correct? [1][2]
