The title for this ticket talks about "multiple partitions" but the code only refers to partition in singular.
Reading sbatch documentation, it seems that passing a comma separated string can be used to dispatch to multiple partitions, but at least for me it's not clear because of the constraints and variable naming.
If the objective is really to dispatch to multiple partitions, can the runtime constraint be defined as an array of strings that get translated to the appropriate comma separated string?

The intent was "select a partition among multiple partitions" instead of being restricted to either the default partition or a single explicitly configured partition in SbatchArguments. However, you're right, the more general version of this feature should allow listing multiple partitions.

I realize that this branch is also missing a documentation update. Will work on it.

Now @ a5ce43cd7493e17fe1bb5f67451957b283881228

"partition" takes array of strings. Documentation is updated.
