Comment (by joehoyle):

 > Currently validating / sanitizing php associative arrays work with a
 schema 'type' => 'array' even though they're json objects. Not sure if
 that's an issue or will be confusing but thought I'd mention.

 Ahh, I think we should error on this case. I'll add a patch. If you send a
 JSON object for an array, that is. I think we have some kind of
 `wp_is_numeric_array()` function somewhere.
