I'm probably missing something obvious, but diff seems to be handling this just fine?

    # diff -u <(echo '[{"a": "b"}, {"c": "d"}, {"e": "f"}]' | jq) <(echo '[{"a": "b"}, {"e": "f"}]' | jq)

     ]

Yeah that works. But I also wanted the ability to produce JSON Patch and JSON Merge Patch formats. And to support set semantics, identifying objects by specified keys. And it works on YAML too.
