Is there any support for or pathway to support unflattening json to scala objects?

[DanielSank]

The readme shows

> case class Foo(a: String, b: Int)
> val foo = Foo("a", 1)
> implicit val fooFormat = Json.writes[Foo]
> json"{foo: $foo}"
res9: play.api.libs.json.JsValue = {"foo":{"a":"a","b":1}}

which is cool. What about the reverse direction?

Seems like other projects already do this.

jsonquote uses other libraries for the actual json implementations (currently supports play, spray and lift). This library makes it possible to use json literal notation to construct json ASTs defined by one of those libraries. For parsing strings into json or converting ASTs into other scala objects, you should just the facilities of the underlying library, like spray.
