Hi,

unlike RFC 7895, 7895bis doesn't provide the "feature" leaf list for
import-only modules. But is it really so that features have no use in
such modules?

For example, an enum can depend on a feature, and if it is inside a
typedef, it can also be in an import-only module. What if that feature
is defined in the same module?

Lada
