I'm experimenting with parse-json and the map functions, but I gather
that once parse-json gives me a map, I have no way of recovering the
original order of the keys in the source json.
In general JSON maps are not ordered:
{ "a" : 1,
"socks" : "black" }
is the same as
{ "socks" : "black",
"a" : 1 }
Only arrays are ordered,
{ "socks" : [ "black", "green" ] }
is not the same as
{ "socks" : [ "green", "black" ] }
Hope this helps - if not, maybe send some short/simple test cases?
