I don't have JSON::XS installed and I do not want it installed:

DistroPrefs cannot tell from the question that JSON::Any asks what
module is missing from the *optional* modules, so I don't have a rule
for that, and the default is obviously "y".
The problem here is that there is no way to tell JSON::Any that *some*
modules are allowed to be installed automatically, and some are not.
