Oh, I noticed libsha1.c as well, and it bugs the heck out of me.  I
just haven't gotten around to doing anything about it yet.

IMHO yes.  I was looking at json-glib because it seems to be the only
C JSON API in Fedora, plus it's based upon glib.  From what I've read
it should be really easy to serialize a GMimeObject to a JSON
structure with very few calls using json-glib.
