Oh I didn't address this -- I saw examples in the interwebs of MSSQL
server I think [1] which had the non-array with commas import and
export style. It was not that tough to support and the code as written
already does it, so why not?

That seems quite absurd, TBH. I know we've catered for some absurdity in
the CSV code (much of it down to me), so maybe we need to be liberal in
what we accept here too. IMNSHO, we should produce either a single JSON
document (the ARRAY case) or a series of JSON documents, one per row
(the LINES case).
