Easiest Way to Get List Cardinality Properties As a List?

What is the easiest way to retrieve the vertex properties that have list cardinality back as a list in the traversal stream? The values() step seems to unfold the list. For example, using the "the crew" example graph. gremlin> g.V().valueMap() ==>[name:[marko],location:[san diego,santa cruz,brussels,santa fe]] ==>[name:[stephen],location:[centreville,dulles,purcellville]] ==>[name:[matthias],location:[bremen,baltimore,oakland,seattle]] ==>[name:[daniel],location:[spremberg,kaiserslautern,aachen]] ==>[name:[gremlin]] ==>[name:[tinkergraph]] I want something like the following: gremlin> g.V().valueMap("location").select(values).unfold() ==>[san diego,santa cruz,brussels,santa fe] ==>[centreville,dulles,purcellville] ==>[bremen,baltimore,oakland,seattle] ==>[spremberg,kaiserslautern,aachen] Is there a more direct way than valueMap().select(values).unfold()?
Solution:
after some reflection i sense that the question you are asking is actually the answer in the first place. i assume this is in relation to string/list functions, in which case use of valueMap() as you did and group() would be the the primary ways you'd end with a List where the former is the most likely one for the average case where you might want to do like:
g.V().valueMap().by(toUpper(local))
g.V().valueMap().by(toUpper(local))
but instead, as there is no local have to do:...

I think I'd prefer the following:
gremlin> g.V().hasLabel('person').map(values('location').fold())
==>[san diego,santa cruz,brussels,santa fe]
==>[centreville,dulles,purcellville]
==>[bremen,baltimore,oakland,seattle]
==>[spremberg,kaiserslautern,aachen]
gremlin> g.V().hasLabel('person').map(values('location').fold())
==>[san diego,santa cruz,brussels,santa fe]
==>[centreville,dulles,purcellville]
==>[bremen,baltimore,oakland,seattle]
==>[spremberg,kaiserslautern,aachen]
that would avoid the construction of the Map of properties first which you kinda throw away with select(values).

g.V().valueMap().by(unfold().toUpper().fold())
seems there might be some decent case for local in addition to just consistency. cc/ @bechbd , @Yang Xia
