This might be cool for scenarios where you have to do several set operations at once.

$ yaml foo.yaml \
  set pets.0.type dog \
  set pets.0.name fido \
  set pets.1.type cat \
  set pets.1.name morris \
  > bar.yaml

Rationale here is efficiency, avoids reparsing with separate invocations.

You could terminate this with template or format so it's not just set.
