Hi,
I can't find any documentation about iterating over a root json array with json\_foreach.
The json\_foreach command requires exactly one argument: the key on which to iterate. However when the json result starts with an array it's not possible to iterate on it?
```
[{key:'value'},{key:'value'}]
```
vs
```
{results: [{key:'value'},{key:'value'}]}
```

Thanks for pointing. I've added support for unnamed root arrays with [Mp3tag v2.85a](http://developer.mp3tag.de).
Kind regards
