Fragment of a discussion from Help talk:Setting values
Now I get it. This is meant to enable adding some fancy formatting or navigation to semantic infoboxes.
This is really an important task. In my projects, I solve it with regular expressions, which is really costly.
But I don't think that {{#set:}}
, originally meant for silent annotations, should be charged with it.
Also, I think that parsing passed values is not about splitting their lists only. This is more complex task involving dealing with alternative texts (after |), footnotes and other accompanying text.
