Can we get a concrete example here?

The '|' is needed to make yaml happy?

Does '{}' mean nothing to see here?

The 'default' field is neat. I look forward to the compiler using the
schema to insert defaults into the dtb if the properties aren't present
in the input file.

Can the required or optional parts go under each property instead of
having a different section? Or does that make the schema parser
difficult to implement? It may also make sense to negate this and
specify only the optional properties, or to require both optional and
required lists to make things more explicit at the cost of some
verbosity.

Is the first slash required here?
