Hi Rob,
I don't think there's anything overly verbose about that. You could use the
defaults/main.yml file to put defaults in, rather than using the default()
method you're using, but that depends on what you're trying to do to a
degree and might not work since you're using with_subelements.
Hope that helps some.
