I think Peter is entirely right to question whether *this* type's
output function is performance-critical. Who's got large tables with
jsonpath columns? It seems to me the type would mostly only exist
as constants within queries.
The patch touches code in the path of jsonb's output function too. I
don't think you could claim the same for that.
Ok, let's leave the jsonb output alone. The jsonb output code also
won't change a lot, but there is a bunch of stuff for jsonpath on the
horizon, so having some more robust coding style to imitate there seems
useful. Here is another patch set with the jsonb changes omitted.
I have committed these.
