This could maybe have been considered. Such a grouping would of
course only be allowed to be used in a choice, and it would be limited
to define *only* case nodes. As such it is a bit different than other
groupings.
Note that you can achieve a similar effect by doing:
grouping choice-with-common-cases {
choice the-choice {
case b {
leaf b {
}
}
case c {
leaf c {
}
}
}
}
container alpha {
uses choice-with-common-cases {
augment "the-choice" {
case a {
leaf a {
}
}
}
}
}
container beta {
uses choice-with-common-cases {
augment "the-choice" {
case d {
leaf d {
}
}
}
}
}
