Operating system: 
PHP version:      Irrelevant
Package:          JSON related
Bug Type:         Feature/Change Request
Bug description:json_encode() needs encoding specification

Description:
------------
Currently, json_encode() encode PHP int/float/bool as JSON
numeric(int/float) and bool. Since JSON numeric does not map to PHP
int/float as JSON numeric could be any precision, large numbers need to
be stored as "string" which is converted to JSON string.

Some "string" needed to be encoded as numeric. To do that json_encode()
needs some kind of specification to encode data as programmer intended.

http://json-schema.org/examples.html

This could be used as the specification.
