      In some cases it can be advantageous to group several properties under a nested document in the serialized form.

      For example, the class:

      public class OrderItem
      {
          public int OrderId { get; set; }
          public int ProductId { get; set; }
          public int Quantity { get; set; }
      }

      might need to be serialized as:

      {
          _id :
          {
              OrderId : 1,
              ProductId : 2
          },
          Quantity : 3
      }

      While this serialization format could also be achieved by declaring a custom POCO to hold the OrderId/ProductId pair, there are cases where we might want the components of a compound primary key to appear at the top level in the POCO while being grouped together in a nested `_id` element in the serialized form.
