Judging from the output it is getting saved as a repr'd version of the
python - should it not alt least be using json.dumps?

For reading from the API, you *could* try to json.loads it and if that
fails put the string. But mind that this is a backwards incompatible
change - there is code out there (mine and others') that expects the
value to be a string.
