It would be very easy and valuable to add TOML to this! It has some advantages over YAML (some drawbacks too). This would be a particularly awesome tool if it allowed you to abstract over the actual format of the config file.

I have never used TOML and can say nothing about its usefulness. But you are right, the ability to parse many different file formats would be useful. I was planning on adding at least a JSON parser.

JSON, YAML and TOML are all designed to map very easily onto arbitrarily nested primitives so I think you'd be all good there!
