Will take a look at what engine tweaks are required re. adding support 
to our Linked Data middleware i.e., the Virtuoso Sponger [1]. If it's as 
easy as I expect, you'll JSON-LD quickly listed as a data format option 
(alongside others) in DBpedia [2] and other Linked Data pages [3] 
generated by Virtuoso :-)

Links:

1. http://uriburner.com -- Virtuoso Sponger behind a domain delivering 
Linked Data generation as a service
2. http://dbpedia.org/resource/Linked_Data  -- note footer section where 
we list a variety of Linked Data resource formats
