+## Multiple values arrays
+
+This breaks if there are multiple values for a single key. It works fine in the report plugin, but inline display shows the ARRAY reference, e.g. 
+
+    IPv6:
+    - fd64:2c08:9fa7:4::1
+    - 2001:470:1d:4a6::1
+
+and:
+
+    {{$IPv6}}
+
+yields:
+
+    ARRAY(0x266db10)
+
+Seems to me this could be checked and `join(" ")`'d. :)

 ## Templating, and other uses
 
 Like you mentioned in [[ftemplate]] IIRC, it'll only work on the same page. If it can be made to work anywhere, or from a specific place in the wiki - configurable, possibly - you'll have something very similar to mediawiki's templates. I can already think of a few uses for this combined with [[template]] ;) . --[[SR|users/simonraven]]

 >>>>> What about using {{pagename#fieldname}}? The meaning of the hash in URLs sort of fits with what is needed here (reference to a 'named' thing within the page) and it won't conflict with actual hash usages (unless we expect different named parts of pages to define different values for the same field ...)
