Yes it's a pretty common use-case.
Right now you may use an AMPList with a single element. This is perfectly fine. Perhaps a wrapper class that restricts it to a single value would suffice?
It would be easy to commit to Twisted probably.
just a thought

I do not necessarily agree. I think namespace prefixing, if well defined, is fine on AMP arguments appearing in the top-level packet. Alternatively the AMPList approach is there.
(JSON in AMP Arguments works pretty well I hear, too).
