Pygments YAML Lexer (from Spec Update)

As the executable spec update gets finalized, would it be possible to emit
productions in a form that would make a YAML lexer for Pygments easy,
perhaps trivial to implement?

http://pygments.org/docs/lexerdevelopment/

YAML support in Pygments would be of relatively high value to YAML, since
it is the default syntax highlighter in the next version of the popular
Project/SCM package Trac.

Sidebar: would Pygments RegexLexer be sufficient to lex YAML syntax?

Without much parser knowledge, from this list's discussions I've come to
expect that a coloring YAML lexer might not need the indentation
state/context as would be required by YAML parser.

Thanks.
