Thanks for the kind words.  I'll think about YAML support.  I hope the
API will be generic--thus it's important to make sure that all the
retrieval functions and boolean test functions will make sense in that
wider YAML+JSON context as well (and other data languages).  So at least
the function names should change?  Hmm.

Because this is very rough code, just a proof of concept, I don't think
I can yet request that it be included in the CFEngine core.  It needs at
least some polish in testing and documentation, and there are edge cases
that it doesn't handle yet.  But I will keep my branch up to date and
keep improving it.  Contributions are welcome, of course.

Ted
