Document.metadataPreferences and linkXMP entries only return first delimited value
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create new Indesign document
2. Choose File menu > File Info
3. In the Author field, enter "Jack; Jill" (excluding quotes)
4. Click OK
5. Run script "alert(app.activeDocument.metadataPreferences.author);"
Result:
"Jack"
Expected result:
Either "Jack; Jill" or ["Jack","Jill"]
