I have to say that I find the current situation pleasing: psycopg2 does the most natural thing with the type (converts
itto a data structure, which is after all what json is encoding) if you ask for the base type.  If you want the text
version,just cast it to the text version in the query, and that's what you get, parallel with every other type.
