But we seem to have fundamental differences about the split of work:

- I want the NETCONF server to be authoritative to tell the client what
  the configuration is, with and without defaults expanded.

- You seem to assume some magic processing exists on the manager side
  which takes what the device reports and modifies it e.g. by patching
  in defaults yielding a complete config.
