[webkit-dev] Internal JSON Parsing

[Jarred Nicholls]

That's precisely what I wanted to do initially.  I had conflicting feelings
on this, but my first intuition was to cache in the bindings the value
directly parsed and state managed by the respective VM.  I don't see this
value being used by a different binding layer in parallel.
