In English, "either" means a choice between two ("Choose either A or B). For three or more, the word is "any" (Choose any of these: A, B, C, or D). The "either" keyword is jarring and confusing.

How about changing "Either" to "Any", because that seems to be the syntax--"any of the following".

Yes, this is planned as it makes definitely more sense. It was discussed in #8 but having an extra issue for that isn't too bad.
