Everyone argues against new standard library modules by default.

YAML is the kind of thing that might make sense. It is a generally
useful serialization format that fills a gap between ini, json, and
xml, and it is a very stationary target.

There seems to be some doubt about whether any of the existing
libraries fit the bill.
