Task: check that some key names in a file match the accepted list of names.

Current solution: use pyyaml to parse the file

Problem: other code requires incompatible versions of dependencies needed by pyyaml

Possible solutions: venvs, fix the other code, to not depend on specific versions, get those changes integrated with existing CI

Or... Make a simple new script that hand tokenizes the yaml, avoids , and is done in 5 mins.
