This is the idea:

You can have an array with associated names as references to your
values, for example:
var myArray = new Array ();
myArray ["User.ID"] = 1;
myArray ["ID"] = 2;
myArray ["anystring"] = "Hi";

and you can use it: alert (myArray ["User.ID"]);
and the result is: 1

This works before with AJAX version 5.x, a DataRow was returned in the
client as an array like in the previous example. Then you can address
the elements of the array with the name of the elements of the query.
Now in 6.x version this array is only a common array, you use something
like:
myArray [0]
instance of
myArray ["User.ID"]

In fact the result is the same with integer index; but the design of
the code is very affected with the order of the elements and the
flexibility is destroyed, if you add one field all fails...

Is true that DataTable and DataSet are serializable but DataRow not,
but in the design and the code this must not be a limit more when in
the last version of Ajax this was already implemented.
DataRow is the form to see one row not a table with the complex
relations, is only an name value array (the name reference is the most
important part). Of course the SQL that generated the row must be well
designed to this.

If this will not be implemented you must in the code every time that
uses one single simple easy atomic row transform and retransform to get
the result, the one single simple easy atomic row.with name references.

Please support it, remember one change in the AJAX Library could be a
change in million of lines of source over this library if the change
like in this case is too simple.

Thanks.
