Importing JSON files with a different file extension fails as "Unknown module"

When trying to import a json file with import attributes that doesn't end with .json Deno gives the following error:

error: Expected a Json module, but identified a Unknown module.
  Specifier: file:///C:/path/to/jsonfile.ldtk

error: Expected a Json module, but identified a Unknown module.
  Specifier: file:///C:/path/to/jsonfile.ldtk

error: Expected a Json module, but identified a Unknown module.
  Specifier: file:///C:/path/to/jsonfile.ldtk

error: Expected a Json module, but identified a Unknown module.
  Specifier: file:///C:/path/to/jsonfile.ldtk

The code for importing it looks like this:

import jsonfile from './path/to/jsonfile.ldtk' with { type: 'json' };

import jsonfile from './path/to/jsonfile.ldtk' with { type: 'json' };

import jsonfile from './path/to/jsonfile.ldtk' with { type: 'json' };

import jsonfile from './path/to/jsonfile.ldtk' with { type: 'json' };

When renaming the file to .json and updating the import accordingly, it works as expected. Is this a known limitation, something I can work around, or a bug? I couldn't find anything on it.
