No, the only thing I am doing to provide jsonb equivaents of existing
json functions where they don't currently exist. There is no existing
json concatenation operator.
I think there are quite a few operations that we could very usefully
provide. Given the buzz that our json work has been generating, that
would probably be a very productive area to work on.
