That list is quite a bit, I personally think the note at the beginning
of the section should be sufficient. Don't you think most implementers
will assume these rules belong to JSON and re-read the section if they
are really looking for why the rule is missing? If you think this is a
blocking issue, I'm happy to include it though.
