I was thinking about a checkbox for producing deterministic encoding first.

The numeric fold-up would be a bit out of character for what cbor.me is usually doing, but could be added later.  As could be a check for null map entry values (as much as I disagree with that), but cbor.me is even less in the business of application layer validation than numeric transformation.
