Any fields that are not yet columns will return an error.

Should it enforce types, in as much as an integer column should have a JSON integer passed to it, or should it allow strings containing valid integers?

I'm going to allow strings, mainly as a workaround for the fact that JavaScript integers have a maximum size.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",1425029242,
