Cool. So if I mount ietf-interfaces (a top-level module) into some
other place, what happens to all the data models that augment
ietf-interfaces with interface specific objects, like the ietf-ip
module (a non-top-level module)?

I fail to see why this distinction between top-level modules and
non-top-level modules is useful.
