I suggest we add to the section "Wrapping Long Lines"

NEW:

Long paths (e.g., leafref paths or augment targets) can be split and
printed on more than one line.  For example:

  augment /nat:nat/nat:instances/nat:instance/nat:mapping-table
            /nat:mapping-entry:


then also fix in 2.6:

OLD:

      If the type is a leafref, the type is printed as "-> TARGET",
      where TARGET is either the leafref path, with prefixes removed
      if possible.

NEW:

      If the type is a leafref, the type is either printed as
      "-> TARGET", where TARGET is the leafref path, with prefixes
      removed if possible, or printed as "leafref".
 

FYI, I have fixed pyang so that it breaks long augment targets:

$ pyang -f tree --tree-line-length 55 x.yang 
module: x
  augment /y:pretty-long-identifier-name/y:shorter
            /y:another-long-identifier-name
            /y:also-short/y:but-this-is-long-again:
    +--rw bar?   string
