When trying to import a CSV dataset with a colon inside a ScannerError is raised during the detection phase. Specifically the YAML library raises this error:

ScannerError: mapping values are not allowed here

Test to reproduce the error:

>>> data = 'id,text,created_at\n83275,"random string with: colon",2012-02-09 23:35:15\n'
>>> tablib.import_set(data)
