Mark, I would be looking at a package that perhaps even uses the bundler plugin to create json files but the key to distributing them is if no plugin needs installing.
We have json files out there, we can import them and they become tiddlers, surely we could copy and paste the json file content into a single tiddler. Then we should somehow be able to ask this to be extracted. Perhaps an importer and exporter pair to move between tiddlers and single tiddler json files within a wiki. OK, that will be a plugin but it sounds like a core plugin to me rather than an optional plugin especially since I would expect it to simply reuse existing code.
