#4006: Be nice to have JSON overload for ST_GeomFromGeoJSON
--------------------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  pauldzy             |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  enhancement         |     Status:  new
 Priority:  low                 |  Milestone:  PostGIS 2.4.4
Component:  postgis             |    Version:  2.4.x
 Keywords:  ST_GeomFromGeoJSON  |
--------------------------------+---------------------------
 it would be nice and match user expectations better if the
 ST_GeomFromGeoJSON function also accepted JSON and JSONB inputs as
 overloads.

 Whether or not the internals truly do more than cast to text is probably
 not critical - or perhaps something that could be sorted out later.  As
 you need 9.2 for JSON this would only apply to PostGIS 2.3 and later.

 Thanks for the consideration,

 Paul
