[CentralOH] List in config file

I need to store some tasks configuration in a config file. We had a old
similar program in perl, which uses the Config::Natural module. By that, the
config file can be written as:
task{
name=task1
tools=(tool1
tool2)
}
task{
name=task2
tools=(tool2
tool3)
}
There can be more "task" sections, which could be read into an array by the
perl config module.
But I tried the "ConfigParser" package in python, it does not support such
lists.
I thought about xml. Of course it can store such data. But the config file
is supposed to be edited by hand. xml is not so friendly to a notepad. I
also checked YAML, plists, json. All of them seem to be too complex for my
simple requirement.
Does anyone have some python package to recommend?
Thanks
