From the Language Guide for AS 1.3.7, p210:
"The Text Item Delimiters property consists of a list of strings used as
delimiters
by AppleScript when it coerces lists to strings or gets text items from
strings.
AppleScript currently uses only the first delimiter in the list."
So they might one day be used with more than one property... but not in OS
X Beta (just checked).
