I like that idea. I particularly like shipping the Python version since
(according to you) it's more faithful to the `jq` operation, which I
like.
I am biased though, having packaged more Python things than Golang (but
liking both languages, I guess...)
In either case, I would favor "whatever someone has worked on". I
signaled the existence of the Python one to avoid a *future* naming
conflict, but if no one is packaging *that* then maybe it's best to let
whoever actually did a package upload that and resolve issues later. :)
It's kind of unfortunate people can't agree on the internet though, but
I don't think it's something we should fix before closing this issue,
otherwise it's going to be a while...
