So, there is a new contribution for supporting Joda Money datatypes (yay!):

https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-datatype-joda/pull/114

(to be added for Jackson 2.11)
and my first instinct is that this should be a separate new datatype
module. One obvious alternative would be to add support into existing
`jackson-datatype-joda` module.

The reason I prefer separate module is to not add new dependencies to
existing users, since adoption of Joda date/time types appears
significantly higher than that of Joda money types.
But I can also see some benefit in not adding Yet Another Module to register.

So, I figured I should probably ask how the community feels about this?
