Hackers,

While playing with Andrew’s JSON enhancements, I noticed this:

     david=# select * From json_each_as_text('{"baz": null}'::json);
      key | value
     -----+-------
      baz | null

It is returning 'null'::text there, not NULL::text. I had expected the latter, because otherwise it's not 
possible to tell the difference between '{"foo": null}' and '{"foo": "null"}'.
IMO, this is bug in proposed implementation.  json unquoted null
should not map to string 'null' but to SQL,  casting behavior from
text as implemented looks correct. (only SQL null should produce json
null)



Probably. I'm on it.

cheers

andrew
