I had not found that one in my searching. But from what I could see there
were many proposals over time:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/10140

So I'm not very confident that we'll be able to depend on it, in any
reasonable timeframe. (I actually wondered about UnmarshalStrict() rather
than using Decoder, but we could work around the short cut of
json.Unmarshal)
