New description:

 This should just work:

 {{{
 get_posts( array(
   'meta_key' => 'foo',
   'meta_value' => array( 'bar', baz' )
 ) );
 }}}

 Currently, you have to remember to set meta compare:

 {{{
 get_posts( array(
   'meta_key' => 'foo',
   'meta_value' => array( 'bar', baz' ),
   'meta_compare' => 'IN'
 ) );
 }}}

 Obviously, it should be the same when using 'meta_query'.
