I am too not a huge fan of returning `std::string*` but the current
behavior is to return `nullptr` if the field does not exist at that index.
@dgkimura would you be happier if this method threw
[`out_of_range`](http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/error/out_of_range)? I think
I might like that better than null.
