That looks great!
I'm trying to do a similar thing but I'd like to be compatible with the existing Ansible tasks. Still trying to figure out the API, especially for cases like calling a playbook from playbook with some parameters.

I did try some other YAML control structures in the original version of uPlaybook, what I'm calling uPlaybook1 [1] now, which I think has some more natural control structures than Ansible. If you are doing something similar, may be worth looking at what I came up with:
- I ended up using "block:" as a way of grouping tasks, and you could add conditionals or loops on those:
block:
tasks:
- copy:
[args here]
- command:
[more args here]
loop:
- vars:
basename: XXX
- vars:
basename YYY
- if:
condition: "x < 1"
tasks:
- copy:
[args here]
- elif:
condition: "x >= 1 and x < 10"
tasks:
[tasks here]
- else:
tasks:
[more tasks here]
