Are you proposing updates to the Python 3.3 json module
to include newer features like use_decimal and changing
the indent argument from an integer to a string?

If Bob shows no interest in Python 3, then
the code bases will probably continue to diverge.

Since the JSON spec is set in stone, the changes
will mostly be about API (indentation, object conversion, etc)
and optimization.  I presume the core parsing logic won't
be changing much.
