Great idea! Application that consumes JSON input and appends it to the
log would be much better integration point.

In fact, it probably should be a stream of such entries to actually make
use of string references. The format could be exactly the same as one in
arbtt-dump -t JSON, including overall array. Presuming that requirement
of a streaming JSON parser is not particularly prohibitive.
