Review: Needs Fixing

item-separator isn't a drop-in replacement for the space separator which was introduced previously. If item-separator is specified, it is used to separate *every* *item* in the top-level sequence, not just adjacent strings as the space character was before. So, for example:

zorba -z item-separator="--" -q '(<hello/>,<world/>,1,2,3)'

should output

<hello/>--<world/>--1--2--3
