The same is basically true even without the extension.

Of course I see this potential. Unfortunately, YANG spec was explicitly written for a very specific context. Using an extension for removing this specificity is IMO an ugly hack that undermines the architecture. > > I am in favor if keeping the yang-data in RFC 8040 and not > creating a new version of it that is unconstrained. > There does not seem to be consensus on how to do this, > or even consensus that it is a good idea. > If the extension is deemed necessary, I would also prefer this approach to making the extension a Proposed Standard.
