There's a ticket requesting us to support and automatically jsonify
arrays in tg2.

I don't think that's a good idea because with some trickery you get
some cross-site-scripting issues with JSON arrays, which you can't get
with json objects. And I don't want to go mucking through arrays
returned by controllers because it breaks using generators, which is
the  the "right way" to return very large streams from a TG2
controller.

Of course arrays are and should be allowed allowed as values in the
controller's returned dictionary, so you can return lists as part of
your JSON response, but not as the root of the response.

The ticket is here:

http://trac.turbogears.org/ticket/2034

And the reasons why I think we should mark it as wontfix are in the
ticket.   If there are objections to this, let me know.
