Can you explain why we need this, and why json isn't enough? Mostly I'm not sure I like the the precedent of supporting multiple encoding types for variables. Accepting YAML for input only _might_ be acceptable, but I think it should then be converted to JSON for storage (see the discussin in #13022) -- we could then also _maybe_ convert it back to YAML for display. But it should be stored as json so there is less code paths to deal with. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
