Thanks...

The reason I have been trying to pursue this to some conclusion is that we 
are trying to evaluate Juniper routers for an environment where only Cisco 
has existed previously. Since Juniper does not (and appears will not) 
support HSRP and Cisco has not chosen to implement VRRP, there appears to be 
no means to integrate them to work in this sort of default routing fail over 
application.
