The draft allows this; see 3.2.1.1 (Closing the Response).

System defaults aren't read-only data; see 1.3 in the netconf-prot
spec.

Nope, it's the opposite.  NETCONF is in its infancy.  The raw config
parts are starting to gel and get widely implemented but the role of
standard data models, how they are defined, where they fit, how and
when the translation between the standard and the device-specific
occurs, and what to do when things don't quite translate are all wide
open areas which need tons of work.

We should work to make our puppy grow up, but should continue to do
reasonable work in parallel to allow the growing pup is useful asap
for taming real world problems.

Thanks,
 Phil
