The JSON-Parser on the client will crash if the Protocol-Message contains certain control characters (like Escape/27/""). Tested on firefox 8 with native JSON parser.

The range of the controls characters defined in JSON RFC 4627 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4627) is 0x0000 - 0x001f. Fixed by escaping these characters in JsonValue#escapeString.
