In the spirit of keeping things as simple as possible, how about using

I've got some sympathy with that, though TBH I quite like the AMQP Maps
and Lists and those map pretty well to JSON, but with the added benefit
of a type system for stored primitives, so I'm not totally convinced.
Personally I think the type system causes more problems than it solves.
For the purposes of management you really only need strings and numbers
(also arrays and associative arrays). All the extra 'richness' is just
more scope for interoperability issues.
