Summary: Ready with nits

1) I might be missing something obvious, but the introduction has two 
statements that don't seem aligned:

" Values of annotations are not limited to strings; any YANG built-in or 
derived type may be used for them"
and
"annotations are scalar values and cannot be further structured".

If I'm not missing something, that may be more of an open issue than a nit.

2) The shepherd writeup calls out the tension in figuring out whether to 
make this an extension or a new built-in statement. Please consider 
capturing the reasoning for the path you chose in the draft itself.
