### Description
I work in a project where having a yaml input (instead of json -> which is
in the case of object type param) is beneficial.
I understand that airflow support multiple datatypes - ints, strings,
list/arrays, and objects.
Is it possible to also have yaml as a input.
On a sidenote: I thought of interpreting multiline input, i.e., list of
strings as my input, which I can join and interpret as yaml.
However, airflow tends to remove trailing white spaces in string list items,
thereby losing indentation information.
example:
a multiline array input of
```
a:
b: c
```
is incorrectly transformed to yaml of this form:
```yaml
{a: None, b: c}
```
instead of:
```yaml
{a: {b: c}}
is this the intended purpose or is this is a bug??
### Use case/motivation
I would like a human readable input, where the user can copy paste their
yaml files in a text box.
