Their big issue with the JSR was that it doesn't do data-binding, which
is one of the major things about Jackson.  Hence it will probably never
make it into the 'core'.  The JSR support is provided via add-on data
type support.  The question may become: Does the driver want to support
data-binding too?

Another issue that may need considering is that once a javax.json item
is 'built' it is immutable.  I'm not sure how that would benefit/hinder
the driver.
