IdStory Identity Manager

A standard requirement is the ability to write a list of values into the configuration. The configuration item usually looks like that:

config=item1,item2,item3

It would be nice to extend the ConfigurationService with a method like (it's just a suggestion)

List<String> getValues(String key, List<String> default);

Things to consider are whether to allow custom separators and whether to trim the resulting items (so this would be also legal "config=item1, item2, item3"). Or maybe don't put it into the ConfigurationService and create a custom object for this kind of operations.
