For the moment we don't have a plan for that.
The main reason is that the MariadB optimizer people don't like the implementation and we are not sure how useful the current output really is.
I guess json is not for normal people to read , it is for programs to analyze and ,for example, display in a visually pleasing fashion. I believe this is the reason why Peter asks, and (I guess) the reason why Workbench has visual explain feature now for 5.6+. http://www.arubin.org/blog/2012/09/26/mysql-visual-explain/
