Great work, this is a nice addition that could well be (after polished
and debugged to death, of course) part of the stdlib.

That YAML code is the FSM definition, now... 
how do you jump from one state to another ?
all in Ruby code ?

Taking as an example this vending machine (sorry, in C# + XML)
http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/xmlfsm.asp

What would be the corresponding code in Ruby + YAML ?
Thanks for your work,

best,
