Currently JField is returned which does not make any sense, it just complicates the usage of path expressions. For instance instead of this

  val JField("bar", JInt(x)) = json \ "foo" \ "bar"

the expression should work as

  val JInt(x) = json \ "foo" \ "bar"

After the change path expressions work more nicely with other features like extraction:

val json = parse(""" { "operations" : [ ........]} """)
(json \ "operations").extract[List[Operation]]
