I think super-global array $_JSON is a bad idea, because it allows
only single instance. It is not $_GET or $_POST which are always
single per request.

Also, $_SESSION was bad idea too, when we need 2 separated sessions
(for example with different cookie params) - we cant use PHP
integrated session solution.

So please, do not repeat old mistakes.
