Is the intention to cover both "absolute" and "descendant" forms?
If schema-node path string are limited to the absolute form (which the
name 'schema-node _path_' suggests), perhaps say so. Here is an
attempt:
"A schema-node path string for use in the YANG SID registry.
A schema-node path is an absolute YANG schema node identifier as
defined by the YANG ABNF rule absolute-schema-nodeid, except
that module names are used instead of prefixes.
This string additionally follows the following rules:
o The leftmost (top-level) data node name is always in the
namespace-qualified form.
o Any subsequent schema node name is in the namespace-qualified
form if the node is defined in a module other than its parent
node, and the simple form is used otherwise. No predicates
are allowed.";
