If you want to have a Record List of Text as a parameter of an action in a xif, you need to create a structure "Text" with Value as type Text.
This will produce a couple of issues, you always have to map if you want to do some String-actions from the Text.xif
If you happen to have a webreference with a similar recordlist you get a possible third "simple" structure of Text.
So you need to do a lot of mapping/loops/whatever to keep everything in sync.
This is pretty awkward, because it's merely a list of simple types.
So I like to see for every base data-type (Text, Integer, Decimal, Boolean) so we can use them far more easily without having to do our custom mapping for simple text-lists, integer-lists etc.
