The new dynamic datastores are (per this draft) advertised by being listed in 
YANG Library.   Only the "built in" datastores wouldn't have a module-backing.  

This is okay for the most part today as NETCONF has its capabilities and 
RESTCONF has its unified datastore, but it does leave <intended> hanging in the 
wind.  

Formally defining the built-in datastores as you suggest, using a module to 
define their presence, would be nice from a consistency perspective.
