Hmmm ... in Lift we do use JSON structures with functions (but not
with JSON mime type). For instance ScriptRenderer.scala defines a JSON
with functions. jlift.js also defines a JSON with functions.

But looking at your example app, you're using JSON mimetype in the
response and that JSON has a function which I don't think it is
correct. So why do you need the jsonCall stuff with AjaxContext.json ?
