Assessment

This issue has not been assessed yet.

Description

We could do a better job documenting array handling and potentially implementing it. This issue was created to more concretely address the issues raised in https://github.com/elastic/logstash/issues/6441 and https://github.com/elastic/logstash/issues/6260 .

@jordansissel what is the correct way to handle arrays? Is it to consider them already split, or is it to run this filter on each item in the array?
