cc @tantek @kartikprabhu. experimental use case: https://indieweb.org/tag-reply#tag_and_comment
the difficulty is, when we convert to AS1 internally, we need to represent it as both a reply and a tag-of, and AS1 doesn't really handle multiple types (or objects) in a single activity: http://activitystrea.ms/specs/json/1.0/#activity , http://activitystrea.ms/specs/json/1.0/#rfc.section.3.4 . that's fine, i can make granary handle multiply valued objectType and verb, it'll just take some work.
in the short term , the more likely answer is that i'll fail fast with a nicer human readable error instead of crashing.
IRC discussion (and earlier). stack trace from the log:

simplified mf2:

"type": ["h-entry"],
"properties": {
"tag-of": [{"value": "https://a/post"}],
"in-reply-to": [{"value": "https://another/post"}],
}
}possible AS1 that we could convert it to:
{
"objectType": ["activity", "comment"],
"verb": "tag",
"target": {"url": "https://a/post"},
"inReplyTo": {"url": "https://another/post"},
}activity is a qualitatively different object type than comment, so combining them like this is really awkward, and i don't know how to indicate that the tag verb only applies to activity. i expect these and other problems are why AS1 made them singly valued in the first place.
