What can I say? Feels weird to include a JSON library in a bootloader.

We are talking about a stage 3 bootloader which supports booting from encrypted volumes and ZFS snapshots.

JSON-support would be adding 0.001% extra to the overall package.

Maybe a stage 0 bootloader, definitely not a stage 3 one.
