Review comment:
       I might be getting a little lost here but IIUC the other json functions 
return a list representing the column value.  Here it seems we transpose each 
column to a row first?  This seems to lack symmetry?  Maybe in this case the 
MarshalJSON function shouldn't use getOneForMarshal?
