Batch import metadata from directories: multi-valued fields?

Maybe it's convenient to import your collection just once and maintain it completely in MobileSheets? The multi-select and database handling features of MobileSheets are pretty good.

Basically, I have a large heap of pdf files (several hundred) I downloaded from IMSLP, and I had the bright idea to write a little script to get tags from there based on the IMSLP number in the file name. Now my challenge is how to convert these tags into MobileSheets meta data.

The batch import method almost works except for this multiple tag value part. The multi values are pieces with more than one catalogue system (I put this as "album" for MobileSheets) and pieces with different possible instrumentation (I put this under "collection" for MobileSheets). I'll have to take a look at how many multi values I have to figure out if it's worth wrangling the database files, vs just entering them by hand.
