As Radia says in her book, we're probably stuck with BGP forever, but I
frequently wonder if she is right in suggesting we could have done
better by having a link state protocol instead.  It trades some set of
problems for another, but I don't find the dread this might instill
reason enough to avoid putting some research effort into it.
