Repeat panels with key value variables

When defining variables and repeating panels for those variables, it only works when used in simple form - comma separated values. When the variables are defined as key : value pairs, the repeat option does not work - i.e. the panels are not repeated.

Steps to reproduce :

  1. Create a new custom variable “var1” - set the value to be key value pair. e.g. a : foo, b : bar, c : baz
  2. Create a new panel and select repeat for variable “var1”.
  3. The repeat function does not work - even after saving the dashboard and refreshing.
  4. If we change the variable values to be a, b, c and then refresh, the repeat works - panels for b and c are created.
