Not sure if 'collisions' is better, e.g. collisions='remap' sounds scary. :) And which collision would that be? At least IMO 'multidevs' is less ambigious. I have no problem though to change it to whatever name you might come up with. Just keep the resulting key-value pair set in mind: multidevs='default' multidevs='remap' multidevs='forbid' multidevs='warn' vs. collisions='default' collisions='remap' <- probably misleading what 'remap' means in this case collisions='forbid' collisions='warn' <- wrong, it warns about multiple devices, not about file ID collisions. So different key-name might also require different value-names. Another option would be the long form 'multi-devices=...'
