I am fine with adding this sentence although, as a matter of fact, the document 
does not define an infinite number of other mechanisms. There is no general 
requirement to support signing and encrypting for YANG-modelled data, also 
because, as Andy pointed out, our protocols so far demand a secure transport.

I any case, we can make this edit only after IETF 95, right?
