Parse non-standard JSON
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JACKSON-69 http://wiki.fasterxml.com/JacksonFeaturesNonStandard
Consider adding support for unquoted object keys. Unfortunately such non-standard JSON exists and can't be currently parsed with the JSON gem.
I think it's a very very bad road when you start to support non-standard stuff, especially if it's non-standard for absolutely no reason. Where ever you see this non-standard JSON, you should tell them, or contribute a fix. Just my 2ct...
In a perfect world all web pages would adhere to standards. Did you read JACKSON-69? It's not reasonable to fix every website which is why robust JSON libraries, such as Jackson, support this use case.
