Here is a start...

        leaf datastore {
          type ds:datastore-ref;
          description  "The identity of the datastore for which
            the instance data is documented for config=true data nodes.
            The leaf MAY be absent in which case the running dtastore or
            if thats not writable, the candidate datastore is implied.

            For config=false data nodes always the operational
            data store is implied.";
	}

NEW

        leaf datastore {
          type ds:datastore-ref;
          description  "The identity of the datastore to which
            the instance data belongs.

            If this leaf is absent, then the datastore to which the
	    instance data belongs is undefined. This means that in
	    particular the meaning of 'config true' data is not well
	    defined.";
	}

/js

PS: I am not a big fan of the indentation style but that is a minor
    issue.
