Good idea. (That procedure used to be called json-tokenizer).

Like I said, in the other thread I am willing to use a generator. One
could add a generator->transducer. Neither I am well versed to
transducer art. It seems to me generators can do what transducers do
(with a little more work to represent intermediate results).

I will look at it, it seems to me if one can validate inside
json-stream-read, it will be more useful.

Also, I was thinking about adding a parameters like
`json-maximum-nesting-level` that would be 501 by default.  And that
will control the reader, in case there is 501 or more nested JSON
array or object, json-stream-reader will raise a json-error?  What do
you think?
