The **custom global variables** are defined as `groupname.varname=value desc text`, where
you can choose pretty much any groupname and varname (iirc, apart of some predefined
keywords). The value must be either string (in between quotes) or integer (number).
Because listen or aliases can accept unquoted values, is because those are global core
parameters with a specific syntax. To avoid having them swallow next lines, you can use
`;` after their value, like:
```
alias=myhostname.com;
```
It is a common practice to let global core parameters ended by end-of-line, because most
of them are single value, but for some of them the value can span across lines, so you can
use `;` to terminate it if you get a conflict with the next line.
So this is not an issue, but how some elements are defined.
