Loopback MongoDB Connector: map properties to field names?

I'm using Loopback's MongoDB connector to expose a RESTful API to query and update a MongoDB collection.

When I defined the model it didn't let me define property names with spaces in them, so instead of "Gas 93" I had to use "gas93". The example is trivial but affect 9 properties of my collection.

I know you can map properties to table fields with the PostgreSQL connector

"properties": {
    "name": {
        "type": "String",
        "required": false,
        "postgresql": {
          "columnName": "username",
     }
 }

I haven't found a way to do the same for MongoDB fieldnames. I have a lot of features in my app using collection fieldNames as they are now, so I'd like to avoid changing them to adapt to loopback.

Is there a way to do this? Documentation doesn't say it but, then again, it doesn't say you can't either.

LoopBack doesn't support property mapping for mongoDB at the moment, only collection names can be customized. We will update the documentation to clarify this.
