I couldn't find anything except
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2013-01/msg00307.html so
I wanted to ask if it would be reasonable to add YAML and JSON C library
bindings to the Emacs core without waiting for FFI capabilities.
Thanks
Ted

I'd welcome such interfaces, but indeed, it'd have to go through an FFI.
This said, "waiting for FFI capabilities" is probably not a winning
suggestion, since if everybody does it, it won't ever arrive.

Personally, having libxml integrated into Emacs has been a major win --
it made shr and eww possible; I'd love to see native json and yaml
support
arrive for the same reason -- json even more than yaml.

I followed up to Aurélien Aptel's message about dynamic loading here. It
seems like our best direction for this work.
