JSON parsing containing commas

Question

Are there Python JSON parsers that will handle trailing commas?

(I use "JSON" from an external source and cannot control it.)

Take PyYAML. JSON is a subset of YAML, so the YAML parser should parse most JSON. YAML grammar allows you to enter trailing commas in a sequence.
