We dropped CSV support in #3352. It would be nice to additionally warn users if they use the old syntax.
A message like the following:
$ ipa permission-add some-perm --permissions=read,write --attrs=sn,cn ipa: WARNING: Comma-separated value lists are no longer supported. Instead of: --permissions=abc,xyz use: --permissions=abc --permissions=xyz or (in Bash): --permissions={abc,xyz} ipa: ERROR: invalid 'permissions': "read,write" is not a valid permission
would reduce users' confusion when their commands stop working, or when they're following outdated guide.
For this we'd need to switch to JSON so we can get more detailed info about the error.
JSON has been default for some time and nobody has complained; no sense in adding this warning now.
