I don't think the above would be particularly hard to implement myself,

quoting anything containing an indicator (the special characters above).
It will still be 100% valid YAML, just with some excess quoting for the
very rare case when a value contains one of the special characters.
Since you're the main advocate of this feature, I think you should
implement it rather than leaving it to Tom or I.
Or anyone else :-)
The reason why I was initially skeptical of adding a YAML output
format is that JSON is a subset of YAML. Therefore, the JSON output
format ought to be perfectly sufficient for anyone using a YAML
parser.
There is some debate on this point, IIRC.
