Description

When there is an error in the application streaming JSON objects via the Json Generator, the only option I currently have is to close the stream and restart. I believe the JSON-P API currently does not provide the possibility to discard the last object (that was partly written) and continue with the stream. What's the best approach? Or should the streaming API be extended to handle error recovery?

Research direction

Start by reading the JSON-P streaming API and Json Generator behavior described in the issue, focusing on how a partly written object affects the stream. Determine whether the existing API supports discarding that object and continuing; done requires a decided, documented recovery approach or a clearly scoped API extension.
