If you have the same forwarding class and destination (part of the FEC
defintion) LDP will merge. This mean that all detnet traffic from one 
node will arrive at D on the same (transport) LSP. I think this is fine
since the label for that LDP is php'ed.
  to be able to have any kind of educated view here. So if we are not 
going to be able to merge we would “waste” additional transport label 
between C->D?

Yes but that is a label that will be unique for a link, we are not
running into problems until we start trying to use domaion wide unique
labels.

  Duplicated would have been eliminated, thus there is no bandwidth impact.

Correct!

I do not think that would be an issue. It is no optimal but works.

Well - I guess we could find some minor optimizations, but this wuth
merging and php this is close to optimal.
