I am not proposing to ban candidate or something but IMO it needn't be part of 
the base NETCONF (or whatever protocol) spec.

A typical problem of candidate combined with NACM is that user A edits item X 
and B edits Y in candidate. If B doesn't have write access to X and A to Y, 
then none of them is able to make a commit.
