This is no acceptable solution. A user shall not be forced to make a SQL 
update of all tt_content records which have the field 'list_type' set to 
'5'. He also might want to downgrade again at a later moment and would 
have to undo his changes to the table tt_content.

This does not work. The setup must be inserted as this:

tt_content.list.20.5 = < plugin.tt_products
