I see what you mean about the end of line comment, but I'm using Eclipse's JavaScript editor for syntax highlighting json files and it sees it as part of the string, as does firefox and chrome. Adding comments to Json is obviously useful but the extension shouldn't break valid json. It's not a problem for me because my double-slash was a typo anyway, do you want me to file a bug?
