This rush to cannonization seems a bit odd. The rule was fifty years after death, then changed to ten, then to five, and then the rule is ignored by our Pope to nearer five weeks. Although sure to rebound, JP's long pontificate oversaw the greatest contraction of the Church in 400 years; in the US the Church is a fraction of its size a few decades ago, South America is turning Protestant, Catholic Ireland is no longer Catholic, and at present trend Europe will be majority Muslim in 25 years. If he were to be patron saint of anything it would be closed Catholic schools and parishes. There seems to be a war between the Traditional and Modern faithful (or maybe just a fistfight). Sorry, it seems a bit odd.

St Anthony was canonized less than a year after he died, St Francis under two years and St Clare a bit over two years after she died. No doubt there are alot more examples.
I don't think that anyone doubts his personal holiness.
