Research direction

Start with the library's existing document and table access APIs, using the nested TOML example and dotted path in the issue as the starting case. Determine whether nested get/set and returning the target table are already supported; done would require a defined behavior for these operations or a clear explanation of the existing API.

Description

Is something alike jsonpath/xpath supported by this library?

Something that would allow me to get/set the value of plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".containerd.runtimes.runc.options.SystemdCgroup that is inside the document:

version = 2
[plugins]
  [plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri"]
   [plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".containerd]
      [plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".containerd.runtimes]
        [plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".containerd.runtimes.runc]
          runtime_type = "io.containerd.runc.v2"
          [plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".containerd.runtimes.runc.options]
            SystemdCgroup = true

Or something that would take plugins."io.containerd.grpc.v1.cri".containerd.runtimes.runc.options and would return the table container?
