Figured it out:

(function($) {
  var _inherit = $.param;
  $.param = function(a) { return (a.constructor == String)?
a:_inherit(a); };
})(jQuery);

This works perfectly for supporting string KV pairs parameters while
keeping with backward support for Object or Array parameters.

string:  $('#containerId').load(url,"p1=v1&p2=v2.....&pn=vn");
JSON:  $('#containerId').load(url,{p1:'v1', p2:'v2' ....,pn:'vn'});

Thanks
