It seems strange that this test passes, but it does:

    @org.junit.Test
    public void testJSONParseOfPartialLong() {
        Object obj = com.mongodb.util.JSON.parse("666 is the devil");
        Assert.assertEquals(Long.valueOf(666), obj);
    }

We happen to be using that method to parse a query parameter to one of our REST endpoints, and it bit us. Should it not throw a JSONParseException instead of swallowing " is the devil" silently?
