Yes, optional.  You either do "conf term" just like on IOS, or you do
"conf session" which needs commit.

Which is really really nice - if I do troubleshooting, I want a 
"interface foo / shut / no shut" to have effect right away without
minute-long commit waits - and for larger change blocks ("bgp neighbor"
comes to mind), commit is good :-)

Which is sort of what stuck after our Arista POC: it's like IOS with
lots of useful enhancements, and without the annoying "I refuse to
do things, because I am right and you are wrong" attitude of JunOS.
