A data in single quotes then fails as valid JSON.

I guess JSON is passed to uglifyjs as JS and there it's understood as a variable (Array/Object)
where '"' is valid, but not in JSON.

There is an old discussion:
mishoo/UglifyJS#156
Seems like there is no interest in adding the support. But it's old and now I see:

-p, --parse <options>       ...
          `expression`  Parse a single expression, rather than
                    a program (for parsing JSON).
          `spidermonkey`  Assume input files are SpiderMonkey
                   AST format (as JSON).

but I didn't look further.

The thing is, that the standard JSON.stringify works really good.
JSON.stringify(Sites, null, "\t")
outputs a nice beautified JSON.

Would you thing about adding an option to minjson and subsequently to Sublime Editor to use JSON instead of UglifyJS for minjson?
Thanks
