Multi-Field Identifiers

Multi-field identifiers (e.g. $CIN<12345-98;89>) are currently a problem in Thor:

Is the identifier the first field, or is it the whole dataitem?

Either interpretation has drawbacks. Currently Thor uses only the first field as the identifier. Merging doesn't work correctly.

For now,

You should avoid using multi-field identifiers for now.

In release 4.51 we will resolve this problem -- i.e. either identifiers will have just one field, or the whole dataitem will be the identifier.
