Sounds good. That's what I suggested, but with the
addition of the `...' (good).
However, in that case, KEYWORDS is the _wrong_ name.
It is not _keywords_, which is presumably a _list_
of keywords (or more exactly, keyword key-value
pairs), that is repeated. What is optional is not
a list of lists. What is optional is a list of
keywords (or more exactly...).
The name should be KEYWORD or KEYWORD-ENTRY or
KEYWORD-PAIR or some such. It should not be
KEYWORDS.
