aeson-0.11 - toEncoding

[lippling]

I'm using yesod-core-1.4.20.2 and also aeson 0.11. I migrated my code to aeson's new ToJSON.toEncoding() function and realized that Yesod.Core.Json.provideJson() uses toJSON() directly.

getChangesR :: Handler TypedContent
getChangesR = do
    changes <- .....
    selectRep . provideJson $ changes

I "unlocked" the speed-up by calling encode (which uses toEncoding) directly.

getChangesR :: Handler TypedContent
getChangesR = do
    changes <- .....
    respondSource typeJson $ sendChunkLBS $ encode changes

Is there a better way to do that?
Do you plan to support toEncoding in the future (I can imagine that there are other places as well)?

Sounds like a good change, I hadn't heard of this new API yet. Want to send a PR to add support fro this?

I added pull request #1241.
