We definitely need better ways to manipulate JSON.
* is that a good idea to extend the `ArrayRef` for jsonb? If it's appropriate, probably we can rename it to `ArrayJsonbRef` of something. * what can be improved in the code at the top level (function placement, probably, functionality duplication, etc.)? * are there any special cases, that I should take care of in this implementation?
How would this work when you have a JSON array? Postgres array syntax suddenly becoming key/value syntax for JSON seems like a pretty bad idea to me. Could a different syntax (maybe {}) be used instead?
I don't understand why '{}' should be better than '[]' ?
The lot of modern languages doesn't different between arrays and hash.

I'm not sure having the UPDATE you show cause objects to spring to life is so great either. -- Jim Nasby, Data Architect, Blue Treble Consulting, Austin TX Data in Trouble? Get it in Treble! http://BlueTreble.com
