Do not rely on notifiction module being imported This has worked so far mostly by accident, but it turned out to be brittle while writing tests. This makes sure that the notification module is always imported before use.

r"""
Using simplejson from the shell to validate and
pretty-print::
    
    $ echo '{"json":"obj"}' | python -msimplejson
    {
        "json": "obj"
    }
    $ echo '{ 1.2:3.4}' | python -msimplejson
    Expecting property name: line 1 column 2 (char 2)

Note that the JSON produced by this module's default settings
is a subset of YAML, so it may be used as a serializer for that as well.
