      1. What would you like to communicate to the user about this feature? 2. Would you like the user to see examples of the syntax and/or executable code and its output? 3. Which versions of the driver/connector does this apply to? Document Mql Exists, IsMissing and IsNullOrMissing methods.

      Possible API is:

      Mql.Exists(<field expression>) 
      // and 
      Mql.IsMissing(<field expression>)
      // and
      Mql.IsNullOrMissing(<field expression>)
       

      Possible translations are:

      { $ne : [{ $type : "$field" }, "missing"] }
      // and
      { $eq : [{ $type : "$field" }, "missing"] }
      // and
      { $in : [{ $type : "$field" }, ["null", "missing"]] }
