Suggested is to
"... use some tests to make sure that the output from Services_Json and json_{en,de}code are identical."

Enhancement bug filed for an issue in the mailinglist discussion "[Wikitech-l] Re quests about log system":

• json in php requires a mess of code and potentially a 3rd party

libraries because:

• the bulit-in json json_{en,de}code library functions may not be installed
• the bulit-in json library in some cases actually has a bug that makes

it encode/decode json incorrectly

Well, that's why we have the FormatJson wrapper. Could use some tests
to make sure that the output from Services_Json and json_{en,de}code
are identical. I'm whipping up some trivial ones now.
