Description
It is possible to use the CKAN API to insert JSON format data into package extra values, but this data is displayed in the package edit form.
Example: Package http://ckan.net/package/hbz_unioncatalog in the API the extra value as a list:
"extras": {"publishingInstitution": ["http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-605", "http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-290"...
yet when you edit the package it loses all the quotes and brackets: http://ckan.net/package/edit/hbz_unioncatalog {{{http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-605http://lobid.org/organisation/DE-290... }}} so when you save the package, the list is mangled into a bad string.

We don't need to support JSON extras at the moment.
