Thanks for repeating.
1) life is not perfect
2) not really
,"comment":"
is all that is in addition to comment
3) you can make the comment string as long as you want
4) uh -- not sure what you are talking about here, it is a JSON file -- it all
depends on what the program reading it cares about, which in this case is NPM
-- most programs ignore unknown JSON
5) well, that is an opinion
This solves your problem without requiring 1,000s of people to change their
package configuration, and most people don't have a need for comments
Given there has been no support for your proposal to date, and there is a work
around, perhaps spend your time on something else?
… just trying to help (and cut down on list noise)
