=> this works only for scalar (bool, int, real and string) parameters
and host-reservation-identifiers takes a list of string.

=> nothing: the config backend does not allow to change everything, only
a subset. Note to change not global host-reservation-identifiers using it
should work but if you have several shared networks or subnets I understand
you prefer to change the global value. Unfortunately this requires to
reload or reconfig the whole server configuration.
