Support for trailing commas is just the sane thing to do, especially since JSON is inspired by Javascript that already supports them. So does Python, Java, C++ and perhaps another half dozen of popular programming languages. Why the hell go the opposite way? I'm not sure who made the decision at the time, but looking back at the hours we have collectively wasted because of this non-feature, I believe they would have reconsidered.
