    <r:gallery:each>
      <r:json_tags:array_item><r:gallery:name/></r:json_tags:array_item>
    </r:gallery:each>
  </r:json_tags:array>
  <r:json_tags:array key="settings">
  <r:gallery:each>
      <r:json_tags:array_item>
        <r:json_tags:object>
          <r:json_tags:pair key="is_gallery"><r:json_tags:true/></r:json_tags:pair>
          <r:json_tags:pair key="name"><r:gallery:name/></r:json_tags:pair>
        </r:json_tags:object>
      </r:json_tags:array_item>
    </r:gallery:each>
  </r:json_tags:array>
  <r:json_tags:pair key="description">I'm a string that needs escaping.</r:json_tags:pair>
  <r:json_tags:object name="options">
    <r:json_tags:pair key="is_gallery"><r:json_tags:true/></r:json_tags:pair>
