It should rather just throw exceptions. Warnings do not really allow error

Agreed, but I can't see Exceptions passing the vote. Warnings can be
silenced by those that don't care and converted to Exceptions by those that
do



Could we not simply make it a flag? e.g.


    $bar = json_encode($foo, JSON_THROW_EXCEPTIONS);
    $baz = json_decode($bar, false, 512, JSON_THROW_EXCEPTIONS);


That wouldn't break backwards-compatibility, but would still provide the desired functionality. :)
