How does it deal with XML-->JSON for deep mixed content? I have TEI 
documents with analytic markup, on which the publisher's rendering and 
the user's linguistic or semantic analysis depends, nested up to 10 
levels deep. I am under pressure from some quarters to "make the markup 
simpler" by using JSON.
