I am not proposing that.

The fundamental point proposed is that the datastore relevant bits are 
kept in the ietf-datastores module instead of merging everything in a 
new ietf-yang-library entangled monster module. If needed 
ietf-datastores can augment ietf-yang-library but ietf-yang-library 
should be usable on its own without ietf-datastores. The solution is 
coherent and modular and addresses the problem statement.

This constraint is already specified in the text of the revised 
datastores draft. Clients conforming to the draft can expect servers to 
comply with the MUST requirement even if there is a separate 
yang-library data tree for each datastore the constraint of 
configuration stores mapping to 'operational' should be enforced 
according to the draft. There is no contradiction here.

That said I would be also be OK with ietf-datastores augmenting 
ietf-yang-library with such a leaf-list ('not-implemented-in' leaf-list) 
as a more constrained flavor of the same approach instead of going for 
independent copies of yang-library data. For any of that to happen 
change in ietf-datastores.yang is needed and change in the original 
rfc7895 ietf-yang-library is not needed at all.
