Would it be possible to add fromyaml? So we can parse sub-strings from yaml?

Not possible in the current architecture. yq is a wrapper around jq, and we don't have any way to add these kinds of commands to jq.

I'm going to close this issue for now since it's not planned to do anything about it. If you have any other thoughts, feel free to add them here or open a new issue.
