On a somewhat related note, I've been using this experiment to 
add "object notation" to JSON:

  http://svn.scratchcomputing.com/JSON-ON/trunk

This just assumes that it can serialize and tag objects by dereferencing 
them (then bless()ing them on decode) and I'm only using it as an 
opaque (and really fast) transfer mechanism between my gearman 
components.
