Unfortunately, that's the best we can do here, since Javascript only
works with Text, and aeson only works with ByteString.

Good catch, it's supposed to be in yesod-json, but it's commented out
right now. It was probably part of the changeover from json-types to
aeson and got forgotten. I'm not a huge fan of the placement of this
instance (it *is* an orphan), but the alternative is adding aeson as a
dependency to hamlet.
