+ * is copied into **str_map** verbatim. If it is not a JSON object ( a

+ * a human readable error message.
+ *
+ * If **str** is no valid JSON and if **fallback_to_plain** is set to true
+ * (default: true) it is assumed to be a string containing white space

+ * Parse **str** and set **str_map** with the key/value pairs read from
+ * it.  The format of **str** is a number of custom key[=value] pairs in
+ * plain text format.
+ *
+ * The string will be parsed taking **delims** as field delimiters for
+ * key/values.  The value is optional resulting in an empty string when
+ * not provided.  For example, using white space as delimiters:
+ *
+ *     insert your own=political/ideological    statement=here
