What about adding in the json package the ability for an object to provide a different object to serialize ? This would be useful to translate a class into a structure that can be passed to json.dumps So, it json is provided, its used for serialization instead of the object itself:

Also there must be a deserialization hook. Pickle uses setstate, and pickle stores the name of the class to call setstate upon.
