More than one value for an attribute.

Hello,

Is there a way to define an attribute
so that the writer can select more than one choice for its value (i.e.,
can an attribute be set to a delimited list of values)? 

For example: vendor= "Windows XP,
Windows 2008, Linux, Unix, Mac, iOS".

It seems that when attributes are discussed,
that there is an assumption that the writer only wants to pick one value
for the attribute. For example, when setting

the vendor attribute, the writer only
needs to choose between Windows or Linux. However, we need to be able to
specify more than value for the vendor attribute.

For example some of our content applies
to Windows only, some of the content applies to Windows and Linux, some
of the content applies to iOs and Mac Os, some of the content

applies to Windows, Linux, and Mac Os,
etc., As we support more operating systems, the number of vendor combinations
increases. We need to be able to append the new OS to the

vendor attribute. We don't want to have
a set of different combinations to choose from as this would be cumbersome
to work with.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be
greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Kate
