Yeah, it should be there already and work.  config_param_list will hand
you a vector with the members of the list when you ask for a key that was
set that way.  I just never ended up using it for inn.conf, but the
library code was all written and the test suite verifies it.

    Please send questions to the list rather than mailing me directly.
     <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/faqs/questions.html> explains why.
