Column name oddities in occurrences and species download #754

1. If I ask for "matched_name" or "lsid" in my list of fields to be returned, I 
don't get them back.

(try e.g. 
http://biocache.ala.org.au/ws/occurrences/index/download?reasonTypeId=10&q=data_
resource_uid:dr356&fields=longitude,lsid,matched_name&qa=none)

2. If I leave the requested fields as their default values, I get the 
scientific name in a column called scientificName - all good. But if I actually 
specify the field "scientificName", I get something with all-lower case names 
and abbreviated genus:

http://bie.ala.org.au/ws/download?q=genus:Aptenodytes&fields=scientificName

scientificName
"aptenodytes"
"a. forsteri"
"a. patagonicus"

If I ask for "nameComplete", I get what appears to be the correct scientific 
name.
