Re: Hmmm...
JSON looks suspiciously like Objective C property files...

migosh.
That would make complete sense.
But, I am not sure why you wouldn't use an XML interchange versus JSON interchange.

Its not plists though
its gratuitously different.
Why not just support plists? Heck, we use them all over the place here for config data.

Re: Its not plists though
Might be because they got it from Python instead then.
It looked the same to me, but I don't use plists every day.

If that's the only change it's easy enough to make.

Not sure that's the only one
just the obvious one.
Dict: { key = value; } Array: ( one, two, three, ) or ( one, two, three ) String: token or "quoted string"
C style comments and escapes (\\n\\t...) are allowed.
You can write a recursive descent parser in about 4 functions, each about 5 lines each.
