Separating view arguments with a comma could cause clashes with view arguments that expect commas within them, such as taxonomy terms.

Also, view settings elsewhere take arguments separated with a slash. This makes them look consistent with the browser URL.

Changing Quicktabs to separate arguments with a slash would fix the term problem, and also be consistent with view settings in other places.

You are right, the views argument handling in QT is not good enough. It would be nice if we could fix the problem in the 2.x version.

We will use the same syntax as in the Views preview functionality

This is fixed now with http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=182748. Users will need to run update.php to get their existing QTs working as before though - quicktabs_update_6004() converts comma-separated args to the new format.
