Don: 

In my understanding, no.   

I2RS should be able to augment the normal configuration with ephemeral
configuration (see the example in my presentation of Node-Type augmenting
bgp-global-config/config). 

I2RS should be able to augment the operational data store  (see the example
of my presentation of Node-Type augmenting bgp-global-config/state).

Does this imply for a minor tweak of some operational datastore (temporary
link metric change or something similar) , I2RS ephemeral has to have its
own complete datastore?
