I didn't know JSON was involved too, but MochiKit.DOM is used throughly in Divmod's Quotient.

Of course. I might use dojo toolkit as well. But having two different deferreds implementations in the same code is quite difficult to deal with. And also using mochikit would only solve the visual effects problem, whereas the browser compatibility problem won't be solved (not that I especially care about the bugged safari).
