title: 'fields' parameter in google document list api
body: <p>I looked at gdata api reference and many other apis as well. Most of them seem to support the 'fields' parameter to filter out a few desired columns in the resultant xml.

  <p>This is very helpful at times. e.g. my google document list api results in around 260kB of data for the 35 files i have. I am afraid this would make parsing slow and would create unnecessary load on my server.</p>
  
  <p>Can we expect a feature soon? Is there a way to still have filtered results? I am mostly interested in using 'list all the documents' api - <a href="https://docs.google.com/feeds/default/private/full?v=3" rel="nofollow">https://docs.google.com/feeds/default/private/full?v=3</a></p>
