Hmm, so you mean change the leaf "stream-xpath-filter" to say:
o The set of namespace declarations has one member for each
YANG module supported by the server. This member maps
from the YANG module name to the YANG module namespace.
This means that in the XPath expression, the module name
serves as the prefix.
.... and then also give an example of this.
This is probably what we need to do in all places where yang:xpath1.0
is used, going forward. Maybe even define a new type
yang:xpath1.0-2 (name?) with the set of namespace declarations
built-in.
