There are JSON and XML extensions available for pretty-much every language out there.

Ah, but there you struck gold. If this is to be adopted, SQLite needs a DataType of FILE. Complete with functions to do things like get a file's name, path, length, contents, and probably half a dozen other things that don't come to mind right now. In fact this might be useful for SQLite even if it isn't going to be used as an OpenDoc file container.
