* Structs may contain pointers - they will be initialized if required.
* Structs may be parsed as `map[string]any`, in case struct member names are not known at compile time. Map keys are enforced to `string` type.
+#### Handling of Empty Values
+
+If XML-RPC response contains no value for well-known data-types, it will be decoded into the default "empty" values as per table below:
+
+| XML-RPC Value | Default Value |
+|-------------------------|--------------|
+| `` | `""` |
+| ``, `` | `0` |
+| `` | `false` |
+| `` | `0.0` |
+| `` | `time.Time{}` |
+| `` | `nil` |
+| `` | `nil` |
+
+As per XML-RPC specification, `` may not have an empty list of `` elements, thus no default "empty" value is defined for it.
+Similarly, `` is considered invalid.

### Field renaming
XML-RPC specification does not necessarily specify any rules for struct's member names. Some services allow struct member names to include characters not compatible with standard Go field naming.
