I think it's a good idea too - the analysis in PEP 518 concluded that
TOML was, while maybe not perfect, certainly a good general purpose
config file format, and I think that analysis is applicable in other
contexts as well. While "easy to install/vendor" was a point in the
analysis, I think having TOML support in the stdlib would be useful
for simple scripts/applications looking for a good "out of the box"
config solution.
