As for comments I usually just make keys named something like 'Comment' 
with a string value of the comment, things ignore unknown keys (thus far), 
however elm package has the nasty habit of cleaning the elm-package.json of 
unknown keys (which sucked when a package I was using was trying to story 
elm config data in the elm-package.json, they eventually ended up making a 
new file because elm kept wiping their configs).  Something better that 
supports comments would be very useful though, it is surprising how often 
it comes in hand, however they will still be wiped with elm package 
reparsed and wrote it out again.
