​Hi Pavel,

Can you clarify what you meant? I *think* you're saying:

* It's not important for me to match the syntax/semantics of the json-path
implementations found in MySQL / Oracle / DB2 / ​MS SQL Server, and

* Instead, I should just use examples / explanations on the web as my
guidance.

​Thanks,​
