How does Rails 3 improve the JSON support structure?

It introduces plug-able JSON back-ends, like the plug-able XML back-ends that exist today. It ships with JSON back-ends for the existing YAML implementation and the JSON gem. In addition to that all of the plug-able back-ends (XML and JSON) support parsing from an IO as well as a string now.
