That's dandy, but it's a solution which is neither standardized nor native to JWT. It's also a weak, passive form of revocation instead of a robust, active form. How do do you revoke a token prior to timestamp expiry?
In 2018 it is fully possible to use authentication libraries which natively support granular control for things like revocation using strong, turnkey cryptography. I would argue most people who think they should be using stateless and signed sessions for e.g. performance are heavily discounting the revocation liability and neglecting to optimize their lookups sufficiently (such as by caching).
