JSON query support

I would like to see the ability to query a JSON file using one the many JSON query 'languages' available.

My personal preference is for JMESPATH:

http://jmespath.org/

It is integrated into the Amazon Web Services CLI and I often find myself taking output from there and viewing it in Oxygen. It would be nice to test queries against it.

Other query languages you might consider are:

JSONiq:
http://www.jsoniq.org/

json-query:
https://github.com/mmckegg/json-query

Thanks for considering.

Fred

Hi Fred,

Thanks, we'll consider your requests.
Until then, if after you open the JSON in Oxygen, you can switch it to the "Grid" editing mode and see it in a hierarchical fashion (some kind of XML equivalent). And you can use our XPath toolbar to run xpath expressions over it.

Hope this helps.
Regards,
Radu
