R. David Murray added the comment:
Pretty much any project that makes non-trivial use of json ends up implementing a jsonification protocol, usually by creating either a __json__ method or (more commonly, I think) a to_json method.
But, yeah, this is python-ideas material and would get into the stdlib only as an officially blessed protocol, in which case using __json__ would make sense. So I'm going to close the issue pending a consensus on python-ideas. If it gets accepted the issue can be reopened.
