Yes, I would expect that usage too.

But even when it's not a common use case scenario, you could have a
mixed objects array.

Something like: ['string', 3.14, {key: 'value', foo: 'baz'}, [...], false]

In that case it wouldn't be just "extending" the WAJsonObjectBrush
openTag, but it should be something at other level, that let you
manage the elements any way you want. Hence the #element: method.
