Yes, I agree that we are trying to avoid separate state leaves where 
possible.  But there are some cases where the value space for the 
operational value may differ from the value space that may be configured.

For these point cases, adding an additional config false leaf should be 
fine.  E.g. section 6.4 of draft-nmdsdt-netmod-revised-datastores-00 states:

    o  There may be some differences in the value set of some nodes that
       are used for both configuration and state.  At this point of time,
       these are considered to be rare cases that can be dealt with using
       different nodes for the configured and state values.
