Based on the conversation that we had at the WG session in London, I 
came away convinced that:

     *) it does need to be a WG item
     *) we need neither a new media type nor a mandatory internal-tag 
indicating compliance with i-json, so that stuff needs to be removed 
from the document
     *) an optional internal-tag might need some more discussion
     *) the document should really just reflect a set of restrictions on 
the json format that can be (optionally?) validated against
