Hi Even,
I finally offer several options.
1.-Export as string list or integer list, o r whatever list;
2.- Export only the fisrt, second,... or last member of the list (it can be usefull sometimes)
3.- export the JSON format you comment in this mail.

Every user will be able to choose whatever he needs.
Thanks

Actually, an alternative would be that you type your list fields with type=OFTString and subtype=OFSTJSon, and emit a serialized JSON array (``[1,2]``). This is probably more in the spirit of nowadays uses, and that should make all output drivers happy (at worse they won't understand the JSON hint)
