In this case I'm receiving a blob of JSON as a string from a source that can only provide it as a string and want to add an additional property before passing the JSON on as a string to a destination (that can only accept it as a string). So starting with the string
{ "foo": "1" } I'd like to end up with the string { "foo": "1", "timestamp": "39483984" }
