Thanks for the explanation. So, basically, it should be like this, am I right?

postgres=# SELECT jsonb_set(
    '{"name": "Joe", "vehicle_types": ["car", "van"]}'::jsonb,
    '{vehicle_types, nonsense}',
    '"motorcycle"', true);
ERROR:  path element at the position 2 is not an integer


That seems reasonable. For that matter, we should probably disallow NULL path elements also, shouldn't we?

cheers
