where does it say this requirement.
Consider iana-if-type. It is not imported into ietf-interfaces. Is may not be imported anywhere. Is this module implemented by the server?
This module is clearly not intended to imply any conformance requirements. It is simply a way to collect interface type identities.
Better conformance specifications for identities is needed
This is a duplicate issue of #107
There is no concept of an identity being "active" within a YANG module. It is simply an abstract code-point value in the module namespace.
Currently a module has to be implemented in order for its identities to be active. Why is this so?
If the module also implements protocol-accessible nodes, but those nodes are unwanted,
if-feature
statements are needed to disable the protocol-accessible nodes.This leads to weirdness whereby the general rule of "implement a module to enable protocol-accessible nodes" doesn't hold true universally.
