> Right now we have the PhoneExtractingContentHandler adding phone numbers as individual metadata entires.... I feel that this is cumbersome.
> An example would be that we have a webpage with phone numbers on it, we then have many fields of the same type with different values!
> I propose we reverse this and have one field with multiple values.
> I would fully understand the current behaviour if we wished to augment the phone numbers further by associating dialing code, country, carrier, etc, however we are not currently doing this.
> Patch coming for trunk.
