I mostly work in C#, but I'm sure its true for other languages too, creating a data structure that you can deserialize an array of different types into, and easily work with is...painful.
Excellent point. I use python, which just works with different types in arrays, and C++/json_spirit, which also just works, but I can that other languages would be painful.I'll go through the raw transactions API and will replace any "Array of different types" with "Array of Objects".
