Here's the current text:

-----
The request MUST contain at least one identifier but MAY contain more than one.  Each identifier must be properly URL encoded. If more than one identifier is used the returned metadata MUST have been labelled with each identifier.  That is to say a search with multiple identifiers results in the intersection of the metadata that would be retrieved by searching for each identifier individually.

Would this improve matters?

-----
The request MUST contain at least one identifier but MAY contain more than one separated by "+" characters.  Each identifier must be properly URL encoded.

Any metadata returned MUST have been labelled with each of the identifiers provided in the request: a request with multiple identifiers results in the intersection of the metadata that would be retrieved by requests specifying each identifier individually.

Alternative suggestions welcome.
