Two objective functions listed in 5.1.17 are specified in section 5.1 of
draft-lee-pce-global-concurrent-optimization-02.txt.
We can add other synchronized objective functions in the next revision of the 
gco draft.

Hum, this would create dependancy between the PCEP spec which is stable and 
this new OF draft.

We don't really like this option as we want to keep the OF draft generic.

One could write a short draft that would define a set of straightforward 
unsynchronized objective functions including those we listed in 4657.
