Upgrade StorageCSL YAML import translator
It would be nice if Zotero could import pandoc-style CSL YAML in addition to CSL-JSON. BBT has implemented a CSL YAML export translator. @emilianoeheyns

I don't know if there's an easy JS way to convert YAML to JSON? If so, that might be a better way to write a translator than to code it from scratch.
- there is a pandoc-specific date format that is slightly different
- the rich-text fields will probably be markdown, although it can be HTML (as HTML is valid markdown)
YAML is a really icky format to parse, you would most def want to use js-yaml. I can probably adjust the BBT CSL YAML translator to import it.
