@asutherland, JSONP is not as an alternative to `JSON.parse`... Does b2g/gaia/whatever have a proxy that can be used for making requests to remote service endpoints? If so, then there is no reason to include any kind of code for handling JSONP requests and that proxy should be documented somewhere (unless it is?).

I find it off-putting that so much energy is being spent on such a minor detail of the implementation.
