In some cases the splitting into fields is not necessary,
see for instance:

http://stackoverflow.com/a/20779529/2173773

It would be nice to have a feature like setting
FIELDWIDTHS="0"
to mean no field splitting is done and
$0==$1
and
NF=1

The purpose of this suggested feature is to improve efficiency.

Best regards,
Haakon Hagland
