property names in JSON could begin with characters not allowed as

This list also includes numbers, so while a sequence of numbers e.g. (1,
2, 3) is valid as far as XSLT is concerned (and therefore a JSON array
could easily be converted to a valid sequence), it would be invalid to do
something like <array><1/><2/><3/></array>, though as per Robert's
suggestion, you could do something like
<array><i>1</i><i>2</i><i>3</i></array>.
If I remeber correctly, org.json and json-lib (my preferred java
library) would write this as:
<a>
<e>1</e>
<e>2</e>
<e>3</e>
</a>
Again, the best that could be done is to follow the rules laid out by
org.json
Of course, if the entire point
is to enabled to traverse a JSON document in the same way you would
traverse an XML document (a.k.a XPath), then, once again, it seems to me
the real problem to solve here is how do we go about traversing a JSON
document with XPath instead of how do we convert JSON to XML and back
again.
