Perhaps since data serialization formats can be used to store data
structures in source files in a portable way, it makes sense to write
generic modes for them that can be adapted to specific PL modes?
I'm sure JSON developed in the opposite direction, but would it have been
better to start with JSON mode then embed it in JavaScript/Python/etc modes
from the start?
