In the absence of true reference material on that, my gut feeling is that it would be better to have unused channels also closed on the DLCI layer. However -- if we already have to open all the DLCIs at handshake time to make sure the BP does not panic, then we might as well keep them open and virtualize it just as Daniel recommended. :M:
