JSON or db support

Hi this is an awesome project!

Have you thought about enabling this application to read JSON manifest files? The big advantage would be that you can easily populate the manifest file from snippets without taking care of indentations.

A step further would be to enable to have the variables/snippets stored in a database, where you can dynamically pull values by choosing the right environment. (Maybe with a nice UI :D )

Imagine you have a Dev-Environment. - Everything in this environment is allowed to crash Then you have a QA environment, which should be a stable snapshot of the Dev environment. And if all tests pass, you have a Productive environment, which should be as stable as possible. By taking this example above into a Database, you could generate 1 main manifest file, which you can dynamically populate with values by defining an environment (or maybe customer) and you have a very stable consistent snapshot that you move from dev to prod or from customer to customer ...
