Multidimensional arrays in ArrayList?

The documentation says: "Using multidimensional arrays as elements in an ArrayList collection is not supported." What exactly does this mean? The following code:

var arrayList = new System.Collections.ArrayList();
var item = new int[2, 2] { { 1, 2 }, { 3, 4 } };
arrayList.Add(item);

... normally adds the array to the list. The parameter of ArrayList.Add(value) is object, so it supports adding any object to the list; specifically disallowing multidimensional arrays would seem like an arbitrary limitation. (The elements of the inner array can be retrieved by casting the element, like this: ((int[,])arrayList[0])[1,0] .)

Comienza con xml/System.Collections/ArrayList.xml y la documentación de ArrayList Class enlazada en el issue. Revisa la afirmación sobre las matrices multidimensionales comparándola con el ejemplo de C# proporcionado y actualiza la redacción para que explique correctamente el comportamiento; se considerará terminado cuando la documentación ya no entre en conflicto con el uso demostrado de ArrayList.Add(object).
