Jackson is a very flexible JSON parser -- it allows for a lot of options to parse JSON-like strings which do not comply strictly with the JSON spec, but are supported by modern javascript parsers. For example, it allows comments and using single quotes instead of double quotes. These options are documented here:
http://jackson.codehaus.org/1.8.8/javadoc/org/codehaus/jackson/JsonParser.Feature.html
I'd like to be able to support trailing commas, i.e. [1,2,3,] but I don't see this option. Is it really not supported by Jackson? It seems like it's not supported, but given how many other options Jackson does support, this surprises me and I'd like confirmation that I'm not just missing it somehow.
