Thanks, I need to remember to not skipp doc building for testing process
even for such small changes. Hope now I didn't forget anything.

Great! I've applied almost all of it, except:

+ A <type>jsonb</type> value will accept assignments to nonexistent subscript
+ paths as long as the nonexistent elements being traversed are all arrays.

Maybe I've misunderstood the intention, but there is no requirement
about arrays for creating such an empty path. I've formulated it as:

+ A <type>jsonb</type> value will accept assignments to nonexistent subscript
+ paths as long as the last existing path key is an object or an array.
