Thanks for all the responses.
The only way I could get it to work was to set it to multiple on a 
setTimeout after the item had been added to the page.
Simply putting the multiple=true in the same code block as it was added 
to the page, but after it had been added, didn't seem to have an effect.

It works, but it's a bit of a hack.

This 'fix' has been added to the demo pages.

Thanks again.
