Link relation is not at all XML. It is a step forward to RESTfulness.
In the older version of the draft, I was using JSONized version of it as
well, but I splitted it out for the sake of brevity.
It is all about dynamic metadata about the response.
Once we do it with RFC5988, we could easily create a parallel to it with
JSON meta object of your flavour.
(Currently, JSON schema seems to be in fashion, though I personally prefer
HAL.)
Good things about using JSONized version is that it will be usable outside
the HTTP and the fact that it can be stored in a single JSON object
together with the data.
Bad thing about it is that we have to start from the syntax for it, which
we can avoid by using RFC5988.
If people want the JSON version of this, I could do it as well.
However, since we are processing HTTP response headers anyways, there is
not much compelling reason for that as long as we stick with HTTP.
That's why I am just sticking with RFC5988.

> Abstract:
>    This specification defines an extensible metadata that may be
>    inserted into the OAuth 2.0 responses to assist the clients to
>    process those responses.  It is expressed either as a link header, or
>    query parameters.  It will allow the client to learn where the
>    members in the response could be used, what is the characteristics of
>    the payload is, how it should be processed, and so on.  Since they
>    are just additional response header/query parameters, any client that
>    does not understand this extension should not break and work normally
>    while supporting clients can utilize the metadata to take the
>    advantage of the extension.
