I'd like if the pgsql json converter would allow specifying
"canonical forms", like it is for TEXT and BINARY (text and bitea
outputs).

Is there any chance such a thing exists or we can at least suggest
it upstream ? If that was possible, we'd just rely on `row_to_json`
and that function would do the right thing when facing geometries,
does that sound possible in theory or am I missing some specific
characteristics of a "geojson" ?
