No.

If more than one .json file would benefit by including the definition,
then put it in a separate file that both .json include from.

But if only one .json file would be including a new file, then just
inline the struct directly into that one original file (in this case,
block-core.json) instead of creating a separate file (so no to needing
iothrottle.json), or putting the code in yet a different file than the
one that is using the struct (so no to putting it in common.json).
