I'd much rather see a contrib app for these. E.g.:: from django.contrib.datafields import fields as datafields
class MyModel(models.Model): my_yaml = datafields.YAMLField() ... and any refactoring that's necessary to facilitate this cleaning should be dealt with. (And I think if they subclass TextField they are reasonably easy to do without too much backend awareness.)
