Also, this node needs 'additionalProperties: false'. Unless there cases 
of custom properties here. If so, then it gets more complicated and 
we'll need a partitions.yaml schema instead so we can do:

$ref: partitions.yaml
properties:
  my-extra-custom-property: true

unevaluatedProperties: false

(Multiple node levels doesn't work for that as child nodes from 2 
different schemas can't 'see' each other.)
