"""
Reconstruct a JSON
==================

Demonstrates the experimental text-reconstruction feature

The Reconstructor takes a parse tree (already filtered from punctuation, of course),
and reconstructs it into correct text, that can be parsed correctly.
It can be useful for creating "hooks" to alter data before handing it to other parsers. You can also use it to generate samples from scratch.
