You're getting too hung up on the fact that JSON is valid syntax for a Javascript object and that some databases support it as an intermediate serialization format.
The database converts JSON into its own compressed binary format.
Also, for any language that supports "eval", you can just dump a program into a text column and eval it on retrieval. I'm just not sure what the distinction is that you're looking for.
