That's already the plan. Since we know the json type oid already, we 
will add a flag such that when on, json can be slung back and forth 
seamlessly as arrays are now. Arrays are already fully automatic and 
out the barn door, but perhaps a more generic interface such as:

$dbh->pg_automatic_convert('json');

In which 'json' can be replaced by other things down the road. Or even 
allow a second arg to a user coderef/object that knows how to convert 
certain things.
