Summary:
This is an alternative to JSONCompilationDatabase for simple projects that
don't use a build system such as CMake.
(You can also drop one in ~, to make your tools use e.g. C++11 by default)
There's no facility for varying flags per-source-file or per-machine.
Possibly this could be accommodated backwards-compatibly using cpp, but even if
not the simplicity seems worthwhile for the cases that are addressed.
Tested with clangd, works great! (requires clangd restart)

In bigger projects like an Operating System, the same source code is
often compiled in slightly different ways. This could be the difference
between PIC and non-PIC code for static vs dynamic libraries, it could
also be the difference between size optimised versions of tools for
ramdisk images. At the moment, the compilation database has no way to
distinguish such cases. As first step, add a field in the JSON format
for it and process it accordingly.
