  // concerned with '()' and 'new' because they can cause invocation, and '='
  // because it can cause mutation. But just to be safe, we want to reject all
  // unexpected forms.

  // We split the second stage into 4 regexp operations in order to work around
  // crippling inefficiencies in IE's and Safari's regexp engines. First we
  // replace all backslash pairs with '@' (a non-JSON character). Second, we
  // replace all simple value tokens with ']' characters. Third, we delete all
  // open brackets that follow a colon or comma or that begin the text. Finally,
  // we look to see that the remaining characters are only whitespace or ']' or
  // ',' or ':' or '{' or '}'. If that is so, then the text is safe for eval.
