As of Firefox 131, I intend to turn JSON.parse
with source on by default on all desktop platforms. It has
been developed behind the
javascript.options.experimental.json_parse_with_source
preference. The API shipped in Chromium last
year (https://chromestatus.com/feature/5121582673428480),
and implementation in WebKit is underway (https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=248031).
Bug to turn on by default: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1913085
is the bug to enable, and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1658310
is the meta bug for this.
Standard: https://tc39.es/proposal-json-parse-with-source
This feature was previously discussed in this "Intent to prototype" thread: https://groups.google.com/a/mozilla.org/g/dev-platform/c/R9UUdVUuUGU/m/H3e_Me1XAAAJ
Let me know if you have any questions,
This change landed in Firefox Nightly 132, rather than 131.
