 Functionality for querying a JSON string.
 
+.. note::
+  In each of the following JSON-related subcommands, if the optional
+  ``ERROR_VARIABLE`` argument is given, errors will be reported in
+  ``<error-variable>`` and the ``<out-var>`` will be set to
+  ``<member|index>-[<member|index>...]-NOTFOUND`` with the path elements
+  up to the point where the error occurred, or just ``NOTFOUND`` if there
+  is no relevant path.  If an error occurs but the ``ERROR_VARIABLE``
+  option is not present, a fatal error message is generated.  If no error
+  occurs, the ``<error-variable>`` will be set to ``NOTFOUND``.
