Let's start with these customizations to the featured sites. The "// ..." commented-out configurations can be left as-is.

Non-functional requirements:

Change file format for the featured-sites.json to JSON5 to support comments and such
Validate & transform the featured-sites.json5 into a cache-busting featured-sites.json upon building/deploying/developing
Comment on compatibility and typing, test automation for preventing un-techy contributors from submitting PRs that break our builds

@mblomdahl suggestion: add menu or home customizations to separate fields in the json like here: "customizations": { "menu": { "hideHistoryButton": true, } } what do you think?

I think we should wait with making it nested until we have a idea of the full picture, with respect to site-specific customizations.
