      Returning single entries from an array subdocument is not supported in versions before 2.2. The entire document must be returned.
      So some examples of how to access into the returned BSON arrays in the different driver would be useful. These pages should also be easy to find.

      For example, the existing documentation on accessing BSON arrays for example in C++ could be improved here
      The existing page is not easy to find. From the main C++ page here there are no links, nor from the BSON C++ page
