Description kinuko 2012-07-17 11:36:51 UTC 
In the latest editor's draft (https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/web-intents/raw-file/tip/spec/Overview-respec.html#attributes-2) the type attribute is defined as 'space separated list' as following:

3.5.1 Attributes
type of type DOMString
A string specifying the type of payload data the service can accept. Must be a space separated list of type specifiers.

But the example 3 in 1.1 Example shows following markup:

<intent action="http://webintents.org/edit" type="text/uri-list;type=image/*,image/*"></intent>

where the type attribute seems to be separated by a comma (unless the entire string should be parsed as a single type specifier), which looks confusing.
