It is possible that that can be made to work, but it's a research
project, not something to be crammed into 9.2 at the last possible
minute. In any case, I really dislike the idea that array_to_json
and row_to_json would contain two entirely different behaviors.
Leave the extensibility ideas for a future to_json() function.
