New submission from Corey Farwell:
Before someone comes in and tries to correct me, I know Python documentation is
different than Javadocs. It is common to test if the JSON is malformed using a
try...catch. What if I want to catch something more specific than Exception?
The only way a user would know what to catch is to `python -c "import json;
json.loads('FAIL')"`. Many other Python modules document which exception is
raised on invalid input/parameters.
