I kept a lot of what Pavel already had for simplicity and leaving the
setting deeper in the _json code for all values rather than 'n' calls to
essentially do the same thing. Those patches were posted before this
discussion. I'm not against rewriting to conform to some other
mechanism, just let me know.
