Possibly. I'm never quite sure how strict bindings should be when
it comes to stuff like this. On the one hand, none of the other
compatibles described in it use any clocks that we know of
right now.

On the other, if we have a second set of compatibles that also
needs clocks, but in a different way, would we repeat that for
each such if/then condition? Or would be reformulate this as
some oneOf/anyOf construct specifically for the clock property?

Kind regards,
