But choice is not a data node.  So if anything, it should be:

           rw  for configuration schema nodes
           ro  for non-configuration schema nodes, output parameters to rpcs
               and actions, and notification parameters

or possibly just

           rw  for configuration nodes
           ro  for non-configuration nodes, output parameters to rpcs
               and actions, and notification parameters


But then an "rpc" is also a "non-configuration schema node"... so now
it is not really clear which rule to follow for an rpc.
