Agreed.  It is intended to replace rc:yang-data.  I have fixed the
example that used rc:yang-data.  Do you think we need any changes to
section 1 to clarify this?

I assume this would formally mean that this document would "Update"
RFC 8040, and then in the document have text that explains that
rc:yang-data is deprecated?  Or do you suggest that we actually do a
8040bis that formally marks the rc:yang-data extension as
"deprecated", and instead uses yd:yang-data?
