The comments on 179020104 and the related bug thread corroborate that a custom code-point-based string implementation is a tractable fix to the issue. That's what I'm trying to do in...

Would a PR implementing the approach in the OP (https://github.com/serde-rs/serde/issues/642#issue-196247375) be accepted (a `finalizer=` attribute on the struct level), or is this issue blocked on something else?

Hi @raphlinus, It's worth discussing whether BiDi might be in scope for ICU4X. See more info in #274. I encourage you to start an issue on our repository: https://github.com/unicode-org/icu4x/issues

One possible complication is that when you see hexadecimal literals, you think that it is the literal binary representation of the number. However, in JavaScript, numbers are usually (always?) floating-point....

I evangelize Hjson through projects of mine, and I intend to continue doing so. The existing Hjson ecosystem is strong; 1700 stars on GitHub is nothing to be ashamed of....

I'm happy to help maintain hjson-py and hjson-rb.

I've read about JSON5. Hjson is generally designed for a different purpose, config files rather than a data transfer format. Here are some examples: 1. Unquoted strings (!) 2. Better...

ICU 64 (as in [International Components for Unicode](https://github.com/unicode-org/icu/), the Unicode Consortium's widely used low-level i18n library) is rolling out [a new configuration file](https://github.com/unicode-org/icu/blob/5630114b7add634f13eca0ca50fcf3bfc7c694fd/docs/userguide/data_buildtool.md#icu-data-configuration-file) that supports Hjson this month.

@TheJaredWilcurt Can you share example use cases where this behavior would be useful? It's a nice convenience in ECMAScript, where you can reference local variables, but in a data format...
