I was confused because even in 1.4
"The use of Set to set multiple variables at once and the g flag have both
been deprecated.  Please use multiple Set calls and the GLOBAL() dialplan
function instead."
There's nothing wrong with
Set(foo=hello);
Set(bar=world);
so I was just wondering why 1.6 comes with a Multi-Set() application.

Never mind.
Thanks.
