can you make this function work like get_term_meta() wordpress function does?

rwmb_get_value( $field_id, $args, $post_id );

i mean if i dont specify $field_id or leave it blank, then all meta related to the $post_id will be returned as:
```
Array ( 
[field_id1] => Array ( 
                     [0] => value1 
                     ), 
[field_id2] => Array ( 
                     [0] => value2 
                    )
)
```
it will be really helpful on my custom table. thanks.

Hi, why don't you just use get_post_meta() instead? Using the helper function will run through all custom fields and prepare the values for all of fields, which is an extensive job. It's not a good choice for performance.

Well, you can do a simple query like this:
```
global $wpdb;
$values = $wpdb->get_result( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT * FROM your_table WHERE ID=%d", $post_id ), ARRAY_A );
```
