Comment (by Nick):
That is the current solution I am using.
Which leads me to say that for me I'd be happy using the default python
`json` encoder - which is already imported.
Maybe we could add an `_encode_json` method akin to the `_parse_json`
method in `Client` which takes kwargs from the calling method although I'm
loathe to add a `**kwargs` argument just to pass it into a json encoder.
Maybe a `data_kwargs` argument which takes a dict?
I'm of the opinion that not much customisation is required except maybe a
custom serializer for some fields which you can do via `json.dumps`.
Assuming we are only converting dictionaries code breakage should be null
unless people are intentionally ingesting broken JSON only.
