So, lets recap. Upstream considers ignoring dropins in the [Install] section a feature. I think we should follow upstream here (if they change we should also change of course). Given that, there is only minor benefit to handling empty lists (it's unlikely a single file will reset a list defined the previous line). However, handling multiple words per line is important. However, since the fix in #820359 landed, I think we should be OK here. So, should this be marked as done, or am I missing something more your patch does?
