Comment (by mhansen):

 The current way to do this is

 {{{
 r('cars').subset(select='"speed"')
 }}}

 You need to use double quotes for strings when passing them into the
 interface.  Otherwise, {{{speed}}} will be treated as an "identifier"
 rather than a string.  There were some thought on changing this, but it is
 backwards incompatible and should be made consistent across interfaces.
