Yes I am.

Sure, they could use each other but I'm not sure how much you gain there. I
haven't really looked into the websocket standard, but I'm not sure it
shares many similarities with jsonrpc, please correct me if I'm wrong. I
was simply suggesting that there seem to be a number of protocol
implementations for Qt and they might be best served grouped in a new addon
module (qjsonrpc, qwebsockets, qstompclient, qxmpp, etc).
