qq should be on this list. It's like jq but works with multiple file formats, including JSON, YAML, XML, &c. and has a really cool interactive TUI mode.

THAT looks like something worthwhile; I'll be looking into it.
I was going to top-post that the Unix/Linux command line tools were designed back in the day when data was pretty much line-oriented, e.g. one database record per line. Since then XML, and more recently JSON, have been invented, and tools like grep and sed just don't work for those formats. But you ninja'd me, sort of.
