So what is i2rs:client-name - is it any different from a
NETCONF/RESTCONF username?

NACM maps user names into groups and NACM allows to have the mapping
supplied by an external source (e.g. RADIUS). If this priority mapping
is kept separate from NACM, would we need to provision means to get
the priority from AAA as well?

And the bigger question: Do we create something specific for I2RS or
are we going to extend the generic YANG/NC/RC framework to provide the
tools I2RS needs? This is probably a question the NETCONF WG has to
answer.
