That is definitely true. Also, the jsonb type does not introduce any
new patterns that are not already covered by json -- it just does some
things better/faster (and, in a couple of cases, a bit differently) so
there's a safe harbor. The implicit casts snuck in after the review
started -- that was a mistake obviously (but mostly with hstore). The
side argument of 'to extension or not' is just that. Make a decision
and commit this thing.
