Description
Considering this hierachical-env config with the following YML config
list_config:
- id: first
- id: second
How could I append a field to the first list entry via an environment variable? Could I do something like setting env. variable app_list_config[0].second_field to value?

Research direction
Start with examples/hierarchical-env/settings.rs and the environment-variable handling around the shown list_config structure. Investigate whether a variable such as app_list_config[0].second_field can address a list entry, and compare the behavior with the YML example. Done means the supported behavior or limitation is established and covered by the relevant project changes or documentation.
