dojo.parser.parse is too simplistic in the case of arrays

Description
I'm looking for a way to pass an array of strings into a widget. Some of these contain commas, which messes with the parser... A working example (dojo 0.3, being updated to 0.9) are the captions in the custom slideshow widget here: http://www.davaz.com/en/personal/family/pretty
thanks for your Feedback
Hannes

We've tried to stay away from using the array feature, frankly. It usually seems more consistent with HTML to pass in lists as child tags instead, e.g. divs with content. Another option is to encode the commas.

Right, I don't want to use the array feature for anything more complicated than numbers or file names. See Combobox.js or maybe the Slider code for examples of how to embed lists of names as child tags.
A possible fix
