Out of curiosity what is the advantage to using this over simply calling Zend_Json::encode/decode()?
You can do that! That should work. The idea is to stay within Magento’s scope as much as possible.
There is a difference, when using the core magento helper the json data gets passed through the inline translator (if enabled) so your strings will get translated, if you use Zend_Json directly it won’t.
