Yep, feature naming in JunOS...
In fact I meant «Provider Edge Link Protection», which is only for VPN (and Labeled Unicast), and that applies here 
(eBGP paths are protected using iBGP paths).

I wonder if this convergence time issue wouldn't be a typical mission for «BGP PIC Edge for MPLS Layer 3 VPNs».
But it would be necessary to migrate the DFZ to a VPN MPLS (and
configure composite nexthop and BGP PIC / «Provider Edge Link
Protection»).

BGP PIC is also available with IP now:

I've asked the question two years ago on j-nsp. Here is the thread:
https://lists.gt.net/nsp/juniper/57149

There is a step by step guide about in the middle of the guide. I didn't
have the right version to test at the time. I didn't try again since
then.
