I don't see why JSON (or JSON-like, or JavaScript Object Literal, or whatever the least politically-fired term of the moment) syntax is "clearly" not an option. I'm considering writing a new RFC that calls for first-class JSONishy syntax, but I have better things to do if it's already dead in the water. As much as I'd like to avoid drawing out this discussion, I think a premature vote that will be used as a political wedge to shut down all future syntaxes that don't use T_ARRAY is not in the best interest of PHP.
