Comment:

 I'd like to see this as well, because we use a JSON field frequently. I
 think the argument against that searching JSON in a queryset is poor
 design is a straw-man argument. I haven't heard anyone ask for a JSON
 field with this in mind. It's just convenient to store serialized data to
 avoid unnecessary auxiliary storage and proliferation of extra fields and
 models.

 Having a canonical JSON field is better than people implementing their
 own, in my opinion, because it makes it provides consistency across
 projects without needing to copy/paste code into each no project.
