The RFC ecosystem now has “relative references” (deep references into a 
document referenced in the References), which can be used for “Section 
references”.

I generally recommend that these be used as much as possible to make the RFCs 
that employ them more usable.
However, YANG models are included as code blocks (<sourcecode element), which 
do not provide for any internal markup of the text in the code block.
If they did, I would argue for using section references as much as possible, 
but I can’t.
