I am not sure what features you are looking for, but you might try
playing with the following:

autoload ("text_indent_relative", "textmode");
define yaml_mode ()
{
   variable mode = "yaml";
   no_mode ();
   set_mode (mode, 0);
   ifnot (keymap_p (mode))
     make_keymap (mode);
   use_keymap (mode);
   USE_TABS=0;
   definekey ("text_indent_relative", "\t", mode);
}

This binds the TAB key to the text_indent_relative function:

   The `text_indent_relative' function inserts enough whitespace to
   move the editing point to the next indentation level defined by the
   whitespace pattern of the previous non-blank line.  If the current
   point is beyond the last indentation level of the reference line,
   then a literal TAB will be inserted into the buffer.

I hope this helps in some way.
