I think that is already the case.  "git-remote" currently has an
annoying bug I haven't bothered to look into that makes the
command complain when remote.$nick.url has more than one values.
Worse, it complains _twice_ (or N-1 times for a remote that has
N URLs).

        : gitster git.git/master; git remote
        Warning: more than one remote.builders.url
        Warning: more than one remote.builders.url
        builders
        gfi
        git-gui
        gitk
        git-p4
        git-svn
        jbf-um
        ko
        ko-private
        mingw

        repo
        spearce.git

        wing-fc7
        wing-fc8

Here, "builders" remote has 3 URLs because I wanted to use it to
push to 3 machines on which I build binary releases.
