An architectural component of this new management framework (that does
not have a name). The fact that not all protocols may expose all
datastores is IMHO not a reason that the datastore model is not an
architectural framework.

An operational state datastore has implications how one writes data
models. It may not directly affect YANG itself but surely the usage of
YANG.

Yes, but relevant to all protocols does not mean every protocol needs
to expose say all datastores. But every protocol should be clear about
how what it exposes relates to the architectural framework.
