But later in this draft you state that there will be an update to this
document when the notification messages draft is done.

I think it will be confusing to readers to see the statement that this
document support bundling, then it says that notifs MUST be encoded as
5277 notifications.
I suggest you remove:
A notification message may bundle multiple event records. This
includes the bundling of multiple, independent RFC 7950 YANG
notifications.
+1
There is no need for this spec to say anything about different notification headers.
It is trivial to add a new parameter later to allow the client to request a different message
format.
