Thanks for the response.

I like the promise of YAML, but having tried it a could of projects, found all these issues which prevent it to be a simple, turn-key solution that JSON can be (at least for simple needs).

How do you feel about TOML? I find it a sane compromise, at least for congiguration file needs.



YAML uses dash (-) and colon (:) and white-space for a reason, it's not a random selection of structural markers.
