As people do more YANG modules, more and more logic and description moves
from regular text into the YANG module.  Where it is awkward and annoying to
edit.

And references from YANG modules don't get counted/resolved/updated, and
all sorts things that the XML format was designed to solve have basically
reverted to 1996 era (without even nroff) when it comes text in the YANG module.

In one of my drafts, I guess some minor wording tweaks in one draft leads to
some lines exceeding 72 characters (by one). Argh. Change from C-mode to
text-mode. reflow.

It seems like we should be thinking about what to do here.
I was introduced to the SED method of fixing yang YYYYMMDD version
references.

While I like YANG as executable "code", it sure feels like it is not smart to
be authoring in it.
