ISTM it'd be a really good idea to support something other than space, since presumably that'd be trivial.

I'm not a fan of supporting the array construction. If you get to that level of complexity in bash it's a really good
signthat you need to use a real language.
 

If we do add array support then it needs to be keyed to the actual shell in use, because it's inconsistent between
them.
