using except to show id and dateCreated as per docs does not seem to work.

The fields documentation says this:

```
// Include id, lastUpdated, dateCreated

```

Firstly, this seems to be a typo. Should it be "[]"?

gives a compilation error.

does not show the id and dateCreated. Nor does this:

The only way i can find to show the id and dateCreated is to hard code every field in the "properties" parameter, which defeats the object.

I am guessing that this is either a bug, or perhaps the documentation is not correct?

Start with the fields documentation examples for the f:table and f:display tags, then locate the implementation or tests for their except and properties parameters. Reproduce the compilation error for except="[]]" and compare the output for except="[]" and except="". Done means the documented syntax works as described, or the documentation clearly records the supported behavior.
