Paul Joseph Davis closed COUCHDB-1624.
--------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
I guess I can't say that Svenson is unequivocally wrong but given that the RFC
explicitly defines control characters and the major third-party parsers don't
include that high range I'm closing this as not a problem. That Svenson is more
strict here is Svenson's decision.
> CouchDB shouldn't accept or serve JSON with control-characters

>
> According to http://www.json.org/ control-characters are not valid characters
> in JSON. Due to a character encoding bug one of our applications was sending
> JSON with control-characters to CouchDB. CouchDB happily accepts this
> (invalid) JSON and also serves it, but then we started getting problems in a
> client that uses the Svenson JSON library which (correctly) complains about
> invalid characters in the JSON served by CouchDB.
