[Freeswitch-users] FS User Directories and YAML

On a some-what related level with YAML.  I know that user directory XML files and what-not XML files can be retrieved in multiple ways (using curl or ldap for the dialplan), but is there a way that we can retrieve such information from a different source like using the included sqlite db or some other db as a source?
(My initial guess at the answer to this is 'no', but I thought I'd ask.)

Is the ldap module only useful for retrieving dialplan info for use with the directory-based-dialplan?

Specifically, can a module be created to supply user directory info (so other sources can be used)?  (Like my first initial guess, I would guess this is a 'no' also, but likewise.)

With relation to YAML, rather than adding support for a specific type of file structure, a generic way of retrieving data via modules would likely be a bit more useful than, say, adding YAML support internally.   Granted, the base file format would likely stay XML for FS's own freeswitch.xml file and any related files, but being able to access module-related configuration files and the directory information in other formats using self-created 'parser/db modules' or some-such regardless of the module would be a really nice touch.
