24   * <p>
25   * A specialized implementation of the {@code ListDelimiterHandler} interface which disables list splitting.
26   * </p>
27   * <p>
28   * This class does not recognize any list delimiters; passed in strings are returned unchanged. Also the
29   * {@code escape()} method is a dummy - there is no need for escaping delimiter characters as none are supported. Note
30   * that the method for escaping a list throws an {@code UnsupportedOperationException}. If list delimiters are not
31   * supported, there is no point in squashing multiple values into a single one.
32   * </p>
33   * <p>
34   * Implementation note: An instance of this class can be shared between multiple configuration objects. It is state-less
35   * and thread-safe.
