Imagine a table (imported from a nested JSON file) where one of the columns contains values that look like this:

{"email": "anonymous@noreply.airtable.com", "id": "usrROSHARE0000000", "name": "Anonymous"}

The sqlite-utils extract command already uses single text values in a column to populate a new table. It would not be much of a stretch for it to be able to use JSON instead, including specifying which of those values should be used as the primary key in the new table.
