 // StructsTokenizerOptions is the configuration provided to a StructsTokenizer.

+// These are some of the common use cases:
+//   - Structs that can be uniquely identified with only its own ID:
+//
+//       StructsTokenizerOptions {
+//           WithID: true,
+//       }
+//
+//   - Structs that are only unique within their namespace:

+//       StructsTokenizerOptions {
+//           WithID:        true,
+//           WithNamespace: true,
+//       }
+//
+//   - Structs that can be sorted by their create index should also set
+//     `WithCreateIndex` to `true` along with the other options:
+//
+//       StructsTokenizerOptions {
+//           WithID:          true,
