FYI: it's probably a bad idea to localize the date in interchange formats. GSON 
would probably be best to always use ISO 8601.

JSON will now always format using the default locale and parse using that, then 
US, then ISO 8601. It would be nice to add an API to prefer Locale.US by 
default. I don't think there's much utility in supporting arbitrary locales, 
because other programs don't know how to parse those - JSON documents should 
not be localized.

What about serializing by default to ISO8601?  Personally I would rather have 
an option to store is as a long.
