I agree, however would like to note that we are writing the 
specification, so we can define it how we need to, so long as it remains 
JSON compatible, which as per the media type registration, is just a 
syntax, and /not/ an Internet Standard.

So, perhaps we need to define what we need to be compatible with, and 
what we can normatively reference.
