Subject: [PATCH] Task: Prevent double json-decoding of attribute values

In bd4a7081, json-decoding of attribute values was introduced as a
workaround to properly handle blackslashes in description and
annotations (see TW-880).

However, this behaviour is no longer present with the new parser and
introduces its own suite of issues (i.e. see #2140).

Closes #2140.
