#### Columns
While a simple key-value store could naively store a JSON document as a textual
value, we provide additional structure schematized before opening a database:
Every member of a JSON object is a `column` in this database. To address members
within nested objects, we specify a `column` with a "foo.bar.baz" path syntax. This
puts all columns at the same level in our code, even though they may represent
deeply nested values.
Every member of a JSON object is a `column` in this database. There is no
specific support for recursion at this time, though that could be addressed
by adding additional columns for the nested values.
#### Rows
Since `columns` are technically independent key-value stores (they have their own

A `cell` is a single value in a `column` indexed by a key that should be able to form
a `row` between columns. Consider the following near-json expression:
users["root"] = {"password", "foobar"};
In the users database, we find the `column` "password" and the `row` for "root" and
set that `cell` to "foobar"
Consider these expressions for objects at some depth:
users["root"] = {"password.plaintext", "foobar"};
users["root"] = {"password", {"plaintext, "foobar"}};
The column is always found as "password.plaintext". We find it (and can iterate its members
if it were an object) by string-manipulating these full paths which all sit in a single map
and are always open, even if the cell is empty for some row.
