Does this refer to an ability to define a hash map type for fields?

@ivanbatic, yes I think that what this is referring to. A list of "identifiable" items (each item has a unique id under the id field) can be written as a map of {id: item}.

Just a question, is the id field then removed from the item if the list is represented as a map?

For example, would the following array:

inputs: [
    {"id": "a", "prop": "value1"},
    {"id": "b", "prop": "value2"}
]

be represented as a map like this:

inputs: {
    "a": {"id": "a", "prop": "value1"},
    "b": {"id": "b", "prop": "value2"}
}

or like this?

inputs: {
    "a": {"prop": "value1"},
    "b": {"prop": "value2"}
}
