Anyone cares about VRRPD when you have Heartbeat?

Linux:
pros: more than 1 route for each network possible,
    interrupt less polling should be supported?
    fastforwarding ?
cons: no multipath routing

In what way is multipath routing not supported? Iproute2 and contrack
has done this for ages. Equal metric round robin is also possible and
works very well, only problem is it's not capacity sensitive.
