That's a possible extension. The parser could support that. But I'm not
sure if it's a good idea if items that are not understood are silently
ignored. For example, if we add a new command "copy" as:
* "/from": "/to"
(copies the node "/from" including all sub-nodes to a new node "/to"). Old
implementations would silently ignore it? For proxies ignoring might work
(forward whatever is not understood), but not for implementations (client
side or server side).
