Good point, and I have to remember exactly the way I wrote the question (if indeed it's mine -- I don't remember including cluster-ID in the CertZone question). The point I was driving at when I wrote a question on this, and was not trying to give it away, is that weight is NOT an attribute at all. It is never sent in BGP but is local to the router. All the others can be transmitted in BGP, but, as you point out, not all are well-known.
