Technically, lua and perl are optional dependencies that are on by default :P

JSON is the cool thing on the block right now too :P

XML has just been annoying to work with on all fronts

There's a hundred different ways to do a config these days and JSON is just easy to integrate with just about anything today, makes it an easy choice
