No worries. We are not in hurry. Take your time as needed and comfortable.

No. :result-params is not an actual header argument. It is
implementation detail - parsing :results header arg internally produces
(:results . "all the values concatenated") and _also_ (:result-params
"val 1" "val 2" ...).

We can. I did not expect that we would need to go this far into the
rabbit hole. Although, I still think that unifying header argument
parsing is something worth doing, even if I need to implement it myself.
