I guess "Informational" is better than /dev/null, but unless everyone adopts it doesn't that run the risk of it just being My Favorite Canonicalization™?

Either way, I'm guessing if the gojq author has that much heartburn about implementing --sort-keys, --canonical is just absolutely off the table :-(

That's true regardless. The IETF has no enforcement arm. Even if people expend the effort to agree a standard, and make whatever signs and follow the rituals, if nobody implements it then de facto that isn't the standard after all.
