This JSON appears not to be parsable - I can't see any error messages... http://www.paris-streetart.com/test/map.geojson

Now we get an error message (which is good).

However, the GeoJSON is valid (as far as i can tell), so the tool should cope with it.

It turns out that the problem is that the feature has a id key, and it also has, in the properties sub-object, an ID key. The GeoJSON tool adds the id key to the properties dict internally, and when saved to the scraperwiki datastore the two keys that differ only in case conflict.

Even if the tool didn't do this id thing there is the possibility of a conflict because we might have a GeoJSON object with properties that differ only in case, eg description and Description.

So we need to cope with keys that conflict anyway.
