-- | A finger into a json value indicating where a parser is
-- currently operating. When a parser focuses on a key-value
-- pair in a map, it adds 'Key' constructor to the context, and
-- when it focuses on an element of an array, it adds an 'Index'
-- constructor. Like all zipper-like data structures, it is, in
-- a sense, reversed, which makes it cheap to construct while
-- parsing.

-- | Reverse the context, converting it to a 'Path'.

-- > 12.bar.foo.Top ==> foo.bar.12.Nil

-- scheme. This reverses the context to present it in the expected order.
