COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks to Alexey Melnikov for the SECDIR review.

** Section 4.  “differences” bullet.  Per “… defined in RFC8072”, please make
“RFC8072” an reference.

** Section 6.  Please review Alexey’s feedback on providing an empty line
between the HTTP header and playload.

** Section 6.  “same request in RESTCONF (using JSON format)”.  Missing “:”
making the JSON invalid.

** Section 9.  The primary new security issue is definitely the possibility of
a denial of service as is documented.  I’m not sure what assumption are being
made about the datastores -- would it be possible that a user doesn’t have read
access to either the source and target of the comparison, but would be able to
invoke the RPC?  If so, this might leak configuration information.
