I could live with that if eager validation on input was the default, but could be disabled by setting (say) compat_lazy_json_validation = on . I don't like the idea of leaving us saddled with weak validation just that's what we've got. It's been an ongoing source of pain as UTF-8 support has improved and I'd really like a way to avoid semi-valid JSON making it into the DB and causing similar problems. -- Craig Ringer http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
