It is also confusing since GD used comma as separator here. I can see
four possible solutions:
 - only strive for the simple case, without options - and use a , as
separator
 - use ; as separator
 - go back to use-module/library and a single module/library per line
 - have a smart parser which knows about keywords (exclude, rename)
and use , as separator

I'd go for the first or last option.
