 Replying to [comment:39 peterwilsoncc]:
 > dd32 could you please check it fixes your bug

 Yes, this appears to fix the BuddyPress bug
 https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8694

 I have not tested it other than that, but the code appears good and the
 unit test coverage wide.

 > both ID and id are returned when fields is an array containing ID

 I agree that this seemed to be the best BC way here - it seems unlikely
 (and wrong) for anyone to have been expecting a lower-case `id` but given
 how easy it is to support, and the case insensitivity of the database,
 this seemed like an easy win to avoid potential breakage.
