but can they also be on a form similar to

I think the answer to this is "yes, but if you have an MPTC with 8 parameters then you desperately need to refactor".
Yes, you can add multiple dependencies. The syntax is to use , after the first |. While having eight parameters is surely a desperate need for refactoring, there are times when you'd want multiple dependencies. For example, you can say class F a b | a -> b, b -> a where... to express a bijective function on types (that is, for every pair of A and B, if you know one of them then you know what the other must be uniquely). -- Live well, ~wren
