Not sure how viable that would be with various existing CDNs (where
the control over MIME types available to content publishers may be
sloppy); plus, JSON is commonly returned as application/x-javascript
or so, the use of application/json isn't widespread.

I like Mark's allow-by-default-if-publicly-cacheable proposal, though.
