Yep. When I first encountered it years ago, that was my take. You'll for Midwesterners. Cool.
Well, I mooched it, and have seen it propagate here in the Northwest. Will not be long before it takes more general hold as we exchange people.
I seem to be bumping into it here (PDX) area more these days.
My favorite bit in all this is:
"All Y'all" which is simply plural for "Y'all", plus a subtle bit of familiarity state info.
If everyone is close, in agreement, likely to act as one, then "y'all" works for single as well as multiple people.
All y'all gets invoked when the group has differences. Maybe a few couples, or some people are new, or may be disagreeable in some way.
English is a lot of fun, because it allows for a very robust ad-hoc communication. Over time, the lexicon is never dull!
