Could you post a link to your mode and some examples of the problem for
Ansible specifically? And are you interested in contributing it to
Emacs, either in the core or in GNU ELPA or another package repository?

The specific issue could be a simple parser adjustment, or it could
require switching to SMIE. There's also been discussion of more thorough
support of multiple modes at the C level in Emacs, but that doesn't help
us right now. I think there may be some other ways to help, though.
