It is not that clear what it means for both (1) and (2) to be true.

I am ready to give up on panes of glass.
Nobody is clear on the details of client-facing integration of running
and ephemeral datastores.

Instead, I think the ephemeral datastore should be completely separate
from the running datastore.  At boot-time, it is completely empty.

To override "next-hop",  the I2RS client has to provide all the ancestors,
and (at least) ancestor key leafs.  These data nodes will not be created
automatically
or mirror running config automatically, or do anything at all automatically,
wrt/ the running datastore.

The router is responsible for reconciling the running and ephemeral
datastores
to produce the current intended config.

A collision can only occur in the ephemeral datastore between the proposed
edit
and the existing ephemeral datastore contents.

Running datastore validation and operation is completely untouched
and unaffected by the ephemeral datastore.

Ephemeral datastore validation and operation is completely untouched
and unaffected by the running datastore.

The client will not be able to derive the intended configuration by
retrieving
both datastores and combining them. A special operation is probably
needed for that.

Validation on the ephemeral datastore is not really required, although
any deviation from the running datastore (especially pick and choose
statements)
is likely to cause user astonishment.

IMO it is least astonishing to say the ephemeral datastore is not validated
at all, but the intended configuration in use by the agent SHOULD be valid
at all times.
