Hi internals,
When using json_encode() and json_decode() it is required that you
manually check for errors after every call, eg:
```php
$data = json_decode("false");
if (json_last_error() !== JSON_ERROR_NONE) {
throw new UnexpectedValueException(json_last_error_msg());
}
```
This isn't _that_ unusual in PHP, however normally in these situations a
warning would be raised. But the JSON functions only raise warnings in a
couple of scenarios, most issues are completely silent.
I wanted to begin a discussion around changing this, so that warnings are
raised for any issues during json_encode() and json_decode().
I have an implementation ready and I'm happy to draft an RFC if this
suggestion doesn't receive universal hatred.
Thanks for your time,
Craig
