--------------------------+-----------------------------
 The `parse_json_params` function only supports `application/json` to parse
 the body as JSON, that means every subtype like `application/ld+json` or
 `application/activity+json` will be ignored. It is also possible to add
 additional data like `application/json;
 profile="https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams"` that will be also ignored
 by the current implementation.

 I would recomment to use a more generic check like:

 `preg_match( '/application\/(\w+\+)?json.*/i', $content_type )`

 and/or a filter to overwrite the check.
