Agree
> JSON_STRINGIFY or TO_JSON_STRING
I think they both fit, although IMO I think it's more appropriate to use
TO_JSON_STRING, because afaik no json function uses the -IFY postfix in a
function name to specify a conversion function. Also, wdyt about JSON_STRING,
so it's consistent with JSON_OBJECT and JSON_ARRAY?

> JSON_QUERY(JSON_ARRAY(x), '$.[0]'){code}
