Ok, this sounds like the right namespace for all remaining items.

The description in the YANG file could be updated in a V2 / 9595bis, to 
be more clear about this. Currently it only mentions data nodes:

           enum data {
             value 3;
             description
               "The namespace for all data nodes, as defined in
                YANG.";
           }

Based on the current text a reader has to infer themselves that an rpc 
or action is in namespace 'data', based on reasoning ( "it can't be in 
any other namespace so it must be 'data' and the authors must have just 
forgotten to mention this." ).

Something for an erratum?
