I discovered that the meta-data plugin wasn't all I wanted, so I
wrote a very small plugin to store and fetch json from the class
attribute.
$(element).json() will return a json-string stored in the class
attribute from the first matched element
$(elements).json(string) will set the json-string in the class
attribute for all matched elements
comments as always welcome :)

code:
jQuery.fn.json = function(value) {
if (typeof(value) == "string") {
return this.each(function() {
if (this.className.match(/\{.*\}/)) {
this.className = this.className.replace(/\{.*\}/,
value);
} else {
this.className = this.className + ' ' + value;
}
});
} else {
return (eval('(' + this[0].className.match(/\{.*\}/) + ')'));
}
};
