title: ASP.NET MVC UpdateModel with a sorta complex data entry field
body: <p>how do i do the following, with an ASP.NET MVC UpdateModel? I'm trying to read in a space delimeted textbox data (exactly like the TAGS textbox in a new StackOverflow question, such as this) into the model.</p>
  
  <p>eg.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;input type="Tags" type="text" id="Tags" name="Tags"/&gt;
  
  ...
  
  public class Question
  {
      public string Title { get; set; }
      public string Body { get; set; }
      public LazyList&lt;string&gt; Tags { get; set; }
  }
  
  ....
  
  var question = new Question();
  this.UpdateModel(question, new [] { "Title", "Body", "Tags" });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>the Tags property does get instantiated, but it contains only one item, which is the entire data that was entered into the Tags input field. If i want to have a single item in the List (based upon Splitting the string via space) .. what's the best practice do handle this, please?</p>
  
  <p>cheers!</p>
