>From a json-schema standpoint, they may not be the same. You can't know 
without knowing what's in foo.yaml. They are the same only if foo.yaml 
contains 'type: object'. It does for us because the tools will add 
'type: object' to the top-level of every schema file.


properties:
  property:
    properties:
      foo: {}

These would all pass validation with the above:

property;
property = "bar";

More generally, json-schema's behavior is if a keyword doesn't apply for 
an instance, just silently ignore it. So while 'properties' keyword only 
makes sense on an object or maxItems on an array, json-schema doesn't 
care. The dtschema tools do a bit to counteract that.
