Having said that, it might be quicker to just define an alternative JSON serialisation of the Widget's XML format. That's currently the domain of the Native Web Apps community group [1] (as chair of the CG, and editor of the Widget specs, happy to help!), as WebApps membership generally finds the widget work toxic so don't expect any support there (though ironically all browser vendors ship a widget/browser-extension platform of one sort or another).
