Where’s our YAML Flickr?

It would be really nice to get YAML request or response formats in the FlickrAPI ;) hint, hint, poke, poke….

Also, while I’m on the subject of the FlickrAPI ( which by no means am I bashing here – I think it’s very nice to work with ) I feel that the API for ‘flickr.photosets.getPhotos’ should have the optional ability to use a photoset_title in place of the required photoset_id. Even if this means photos are returned from across multiple sets of the same title I think it would be a useful filter. On second thought I can see now why there isn’t an API for this. Also, does anyone know if there is a way to get the file extension(s) along with photos in sets in the same request for a Photoset by Id?
