I should highlight that importing multiple values is okay only by certain parameters (like the mentioned ones). For example, place_of_birth may contain more links but only the first one is valid.

Just to make it clear.

Useful suggestion. Needed also for such common properties like "occupation" for people, and P150 (contains administrative territorial entity) and P1383 (contains settlement) for administrative subdivisions of countries.
I support implementing it.

To implement this, there should be added one more command line option (something like ~"-listok" / "-multiple") which will tell to script that is ok to harvest all listed values in a template parameter; but by default this should be disabled (it is not always safe, as Matej said above).
