I wonder if postgres will adopt BSON instead of JSON and implement all the querying -- that would be so much better.

p.s.: guys who disagree -- why would you do that? I mean, BSON lets you quickly skip (embedded) documents you're not interested in, since it stores their size. Also it has type info and some additional types. So it's just "better JSON" for storing and navigating, and if postgres wants to have querying in JSON, they will either take BSON or invent the wheel for something similar.
