Description

I would like to "set" multiple values into a field using partial updates like so:

List<String> values = new ArrayList<String>();
values.add("one");
values.add("two");
values.add("three");
doc.setField(field, singletonMap("set", values));

When using the standard XML-based RequestWriter, you end up with a single value that looks like [one, two, three], because of the toString() calls on lines 130 and 132 of ClientUtils. It works properly when using the BinaryRequestWriter.
