Becuase e4x has limited support in browsers, (firefox has awesome support for it) I had started a plugin that used jsonpath ( http://goessner.net/articles/JsonPath/) and jquery.collection ( http://flesler.blogspot.com/2008/01/jquerycollection.html) together to provide a jquery-like way to query large js objects. The project got dusty, mainly because it tried to cram too much functionality into it and it became unwieldy.
I'm going to take it off the shelf for a few hours this morning and hack it down into a more useful core. My personal goal for creating it is to use it in templates and allow jquery-like plugins to add functionality to it. If your curious I'll create a github project and post the code up there.
