Actually, let me change that to: "Let's always report the root bridge ID 
in the DRB's
LSP, not the pseudonode LSP"

So I'm getting more comfortable with that proposal -- the DRB only 
declares a pseudonode
if there really are too many neighbors, and switching over from 
non-pseudonode to
pseudnode is really not very disruptive.
