Yes, that's a bit of a limitation. It tries to map whatever you 
currently have in your tag to list entries; if you have something in 
your tag that's not in the list then the whole list will be disabled.

What you probably want is a list that is automatically extended by any 
values already present, and also has a "+" button so you can add 
values... however, that would mean that if there's a typo in the tag 
(eg. cuisine=itailan) then it would add "itailan" to the list... not 
good either.

Bye
Frederik
