That's surely right: consider that Pickle is not simply a format,
You're not going to be able to serialize Python class instances in JSON:
json strings are simple object literals limited to basic Javascript types.
Pickle does some pretty heavy lifting to serialize and reconstitute class
instances.
Easiest way to store JSON in the database is to limit the type

Hey Matt.
Class hinting was a json-rpc 1.0 feature, subsequently dropped in 1.1. But
that's a nit.
The real problem, though is reconstituing those hints -- the machinery for
reinstantiating those objects has to come from somewhere, and that somewhere
is going to your code -- there is no magic
