Concerning your suggestion to use "name=n1 alt_name=n2;n3", let me rethorically wonder why you didn't suggest "name=n1;n2;n3" ? I expect it is because the risk of semicolons in the "name" tag catching some consumers unaware. Well, that risk of catching consumers unaware is pretty much the same with semicolons in "name" as in "alt_name".
I'm sorry if I don't fit in the context, because I don't follow this thread, but I know at least one valid case, where we need to know proper sequence of elements and semicolon notation would be not suitable - think of long inscriptions on monuments/memorials (and we have only 255 chars available per value, IIRC).
It's a technical problem with our tagging system - no nesting, no sequencing and only one value per key are the most visible ones for me.
