 // GetPLS supports the following struct tag syntax:

 //      field.  When the struct is serialized or deserialized, fieldName will be
 //      associated with the struct field instead of the field's Go name. This is
 //      useful when writing Go code which interfaces with appengine code written
 //      in other languages (like python) which use lowercase as their default
 //      datastore field names.
