right, the jq query language is much more complex and featureful than the simple selector syntax I added to the rx-cli. But more could be added later as needed or it could just stream JSON output. It would be pretty trivial to hook up a streaming JSON encoder to rx-cli which could then pipe to jq for low-latency lookups. The problem is jq would need to JSON parse all that data which will be expensive.
