Somewhere upthread, Peter seemed to estimate it at a day, if I
understood correctly.  If that's accurate, I'm certainly behind getting
it done and in and moving on.  I'm sure no one particularly likes a
bunch of copy/pasteing of code, but if it would get us to the point of
having a really working jsonb that everyone is happy with, I'm all for
it.

It's not clear how much different it would be if we waited til 9.5
either- do we anticipate a lot of code changes beyond the copy/paste for
these?
Thanks,
    Stephen
