Andrew Gierth wrote the current implementation of htsore
populate_record IIRC.  Unfortunately the plan for jsonb was to borrow
hstore's (I don't think hstore can use the jsonb implementation
because you'd be taking away the ability to handle internally nested
structures it currently has).  Of my two complaints upthread, the
second one, not being able to populate from and internally well formed
structure, is by far the more serious one I think.
