Yup. As things stand currently, it's better *not* to make

from libpqtypes which solves a lot of the same problems for C clients.
You can *almost* send json back to the database with the same
elegance as it can be sent out of the database. I see a big future
for postgres-json with many roadmap improvements; it's a complete game
change for service call driven database interaction and forward
thinking developers should realize it essentially obsoletes ORMS.

In your view, would it be better to serialize in the pseudo-nested-csv (native row/array) formats?
