I agree--I provided the same feedback privately. It seems
straightforwardly unsound.

JSON Pointer does not distinguish between objects and arrays. That is not
determined until the pointer is applied to an actual object instance... the
pointer "/1" is valid against {"1":"a"} or ["a","b"]

I've asked that before but didn't get an answer. So let me ask again (even
though I'm quite sure it has already been asked by somebody else).
How does JSON Pointer distinguish between objects and arrays? E.g. consider
the following JSON document:
{
"foo": "bar",
"1": "baz"
}
As I read the draft, the JSON Pointer "/1" would evaluate to "baz" even
though that's probably not what the author intended. Is there a way to avoid
that?
Thanks,
Markus
