It's just completely different from how all other kickstart commands are
processed, and if there's not a really good reason why it needs to be
that way, it shouldn't.  I don't want to have a third style of things to
have to remember and debug.

It also breaks the current assumption that each line maps to one piece
of kickstart data, like all other commands do.  I don't know that I am
relying on that anywhere, but it seems like a pretty handy assumption to
have in the future.
