RFC: Beyond validation — what else would you use this tool for?

[kehoecj]

We've got 18 formats covered for validation and schema checking. I'm thinking about what additional functionality would be valuable.

Some things I've been considering:

• validator convert config.yaml --to toml: convert between formats
• validator fmt .: format and validate config files types. Use the .cfv.toml to set per-format formatting rules.
• validator merge base.yaml override.yaml: deep merge with conflict detection
• Automatically fixing syntax errors using a --fix flag

Would any of these be useful enhancements? Any other enhancements that you'd find useful?
