So now when I'm exporting data I need to know what nesting level it's going to live at so I can generate the correct separators?

I really think that might be the worst idea I've heard for a while!

It's not toooo bad :) But it's very much a "thing" in the real word. It's called EDI, and it's been around for a long time.
