I believe it does not matter where a capability is defined. You can
even declare the capability dead by writing a document declaring it
dead; this does not require to revise the RFC the capability is
defined in. Since the candidate datastore has been in NETCONF since
day one and it is out there and apparently used, I do not see a strong
reason to move the definition. Those who do not like it simply do not
implement it.
