Here's another kick:
- Using JSON in php, when you decode what you encoded you don't always
get the same thing back (serialize you of course do)
Even serialize() doesn't round-trip cleanly in certain cases:

Another point came up in IRC discussions: "JSON converts UTF-8
characters to unicode escape sequences. serialize() does not."
This effectively negates any size advantages JSON might have. I
noticed JSON is used extensively in resource loader.
Roan: did you consider this point when choosing JSON format for
storing message resources?
