title: Is there a YAML Database?
body: <p>I like YAML's data model a lot, preserving most of the simplicity of JSON and extending it with a few sometimes-important features like custom data types and references.</p>
  
  <p>So is there any way to store a lot of data in the YAML data model (or something very similar) and query it using an index? Like a YAML database, analogous to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML_database">XML databases</a> or JSON databases like Mongo DB. Or is there a mapper from YAML to something like Mongo DB that lets me transparently use it as a YAML store?</p>
  
  <p>I haven't found anything so maybe there aren't any. Why would that be? Is it a stupid idea or is YAML simply too young and they will come?</p>
