> When using ConfigurationUtils.copy to go between configuration formats any escaped out "," characters are put into the output configuration without the escape character.  This results in a different value being returned from getString calls as it now things the property is a list.  If 4 escape characters are used instead of the expected 1 then the copy will end up with the correct value, but then the original will end up with the escape character as part of the property value.  
> Example:
> SomeLongProperty=This is a test\, it is only a test
> # Ends up right in the copy, but not right in the original
> SomeOtherProperty=This is also a test\\\\, it is also only a test
> After copy:
> # Missing "\" before ","
> SomeLongProperty=This is a test, it is only a test
> SomeOtherProperty=This is also a test\, it is also only a test
