Given the above, do you think there is a valid case to be made for a
serialization format other than JavaScript source itself?
No, I do not. I've cooled on the idea since last talking about it on
this list.
But as Mark pointed out in reply (sorry, I've been off-net all day and
am only now catching up) a JsonML AST encoding standard would help
certain programs. Narcissus could be a lot faster if it could call a
standard method to parse its source into such a JSON object tree and
then execute that, for example (almost all profiled time running
Narcissus is in its lexer and parser).
