Description

When fetching a row such as row = results.next() it returns an Element, and getting the fields using row[0] etc. This makes ugly code. In other languages I can do something like row["columnName"] to get the data I'm looking for.

Research direction

Determine the project’s existing row and result-handling tests or examples, then verify that column-name lookup works without breaking the current array-style access.
