. I use the indigo.List() and indigo.Dict() for a lot of things but often it's because I want the pretty unicode(myList) output when I'm debugging, they don't play with a lot of the common list and dict functions I use, like JSON dumps and loads (or what you are trying to do with them).

I've gotten a few messages like that in my Indigo plugin development that make me laugh.
