Follow-up Comment #3, task #15919 (project administration):
[comment #2 comment #2:]
> The standard JSON, as specified in RFC7159/RFC8259/ECMA-404, does not allow
comment blocks. While JSON5, a popular superset of JSON, supports C-style
comments. However, the latter it is not standardized, and unsupported by most
systems which use JSON.
One workaround could be to preprocess the files to strip the comments and get
the "real" JSON.
> A possible workaround is adding extra entries to the JSON and pretend that
they are comments, which is also not a very good idea.
Why not?
