    Also, again, complex key names simply wouldn't have any value to over 99% 
of Mongo users. As I said, I'm sure there's a few random users that want to 
chuck something like this in Mongo:
    
    ```
    {
        "user.name": "john.smith",
        "user.contact.email": "john.sm...@test.com"
    }
    ```
    
    Accommodating that would be detrimental to providing a consistent tool for 
the vast majority of Mongo users.
