This is in preparation to take deeper dict constructs from the command
line. You can feed the optionslist directly constructed of type
"identkeyval" to it and it returns a fully deflated dict.

This is mainly needed for the resource model changes where we have to
modify the disk_state which is a 3 level dict:

disk_type/name:disk_reserved=10g
