Should not return an error on control characters in string

[pzol]

Or should at least give the option to ignore them.

With this, if there is garbage within a string, you cannot decode the json in question

[dtolnay]

I would be against supporting this. If your data is not JSON, you should not be using a JSON parser to read it.

I'm going to close this now that this crate is deprecated in favor of serde. We're discontinuing feature development in rustc-serialize but will still continue to merge bug fixes if they arise.
