Hi Acee, There is indeed overwhelming support on the feature. However, reading this brand new -01 (thanks for the advertisement) and the necessary backward compatibility section it had to include, I wonder if this I-D is specifying a solution to a problem vs. creating new issues...
More generally, we should clarify how much we, as community, are ready to duplicate protocol extensions/codepoints on a solely "repurposing" basis. If there is a risk of redefining all extensions originally specified for the TE use-case, we must right now discuss where to globally draw the line between what we may accept and what we will not. Otherwise, we will jump onto a controversy each time a new parameter set is tackled in a dedicated I-D. Please note there are some other ways forward in the Routing area. For (random) example, PCEP has been repurposed from a its original scope to encompass capabilities to push state. To do so, some features and objects had to be repurposed, but the specification managed to reuse the original ones, avoiding any backward compatibility considerations...
