Have you looked at JSON5? http://json5.org/

JSON5 looks really good. I'm not sure about this one part though, from a point of view of simplicity and interoperability when deserializing the data:

This is a good thing. It means there is a 1:1 mapping between numbers in JSON5 and IEEE floats.

i've used json5 since the beginning. it's great! just a couple week ago they merged in descriptive error messages too. No more wondering where the bug is!
