Review Comment:
   Meanwhile, even the parser I cooked up above is technically incomplete, 
because JSON allows field names to contain any character (including `.`, `[` 
and `]` which my suggestion would reject as ambiguous). The only way to avoid 
that is with some kind of escaping syntax. I believe Iceberg uses canonical 
JSONpath, for example.
