You are quite wrong. This was discussed quite recently on -hackers, too. 
V8 will happily accept a JSON string with duplicate keys via eval() and 
resolve it in favor of the lexically latest value. I gather most other 
JSON processors do likewise.


Can we PLEASE PLEASE stop sending this discussion off track and 
concentrate on the actual problem we have at hand? It's BETA and there 
is not much time. I get that you don't like how we have implemented 
JSON. But we're not going back over that ground now. It's done and in 
use and LOTS of people are finding it very useful.
