The docs only present the "," because that's the preferred way. The other forms are supported mainly for historical reasons. You should stick with the documentation. The tests should use the documented form.
"," is historical... The FAQ entry is all that needs fixing.
Since we normally use white space for other delimiters, I think "," is actually the better choice here. Anything that requires additional quoting is generally a bad idea...
I concur. In general (e.g. attribute lists) we use commas. However, it's essentially a matter of documentation: the code will have to support both syntaxes, otherwise so many configurations would break.
