That sounds like a description of how to make JSON into a capture file format;
we don't support PDML as a capture file format, and I don't think he's asking
for support of JSON as a capture file format.
To support JSON as a *packet dissection* output format, the way we support PDML
as a packet dissection output format, look at the "_pdml" routines in
epan/print.c, add similar routines for JSON, and use them in file.c, tfshark.c,
and tshark.c in a similar way to which the _pdml routines are used, with a new
"-T json" option in TShark/TFShark and new GUI options in Wireshark.
