Agreed.

Correct, we'll figure it out in the DID WG. We can always state that
did+jsonld MUST be processed as if it were ld+json... but push the
+json+ld discussion at IETF/IANA... DID WG doesn't need finality on that
for a year, so let's push IETF to get to a decision there, because it is
the cleaner solution (and we've already done tests to see if it breaks
media type libraries and it doesn't seem to).

I've opened a new issue in the DID WG and we'll pursue it there:

Thank you to the JSON-LD WG for the consideration and effort! :)

We'll pursue this in the DID WG (with, hopefully, the support of the
JSON-LD WG -- for as long as their charter allows).
