karver The Value data type is too limited

I wonder why the Object constructor in the Value data type holds a map of Text to Text, not Text to Values?

data Value = Literal Text | Object (HashMap Text Text) | List   (Vector Value)

It does not allow nested objects and is too limited for many use cases. I wonder if it is on purpose of something that can be considered as an improvment?

I believe it was because the parser doesn't support object values passed the first. I haven't touched this project in quite a while so I'm not sure I will get to supporting Object containing Value anytime soon.

Does the json input support nested objects?

This is both a yes and no. The library I use for dealing with JSON is aeson and that does deal with nested object, but internally these JSON object convert to a Value and that ends up not supporting nesting.
