Since JSON and Javascript are synonymous, sure, \u is for javascript
string literals.  I thought you meant whether it was useful outside of
Javascript.

And I disagree with your second statement.  Why wouldn't you use json
anytime you wanted to jump from PHP to Javascript?

<script>
var a = <?php echo json_encode($a)?>;
</script>

That ensures that no matter what $a is on the PHP side, it will be
correctly assigned to the corresponding Javascript variable.
