Isn't that the point of 124/125?  The client sends in 124 with all of the
vendor IDs it's interested in/supports, and a 3925 aware server would key
off of that (instead of 60) to choose what to fill 125 with?

One thing that isn't as clear as it could be in RFC 3925 is how a client
communication interested in a certain vendor option set. Part of the reason
for this is that it really is up to each vendor to determine that. But that
does make it more difficult for server vendors to provide appropriate
triggers. Likely most servers will require you to classify the incoming
request in some way and then the options configured for that class are
returned. A common trigger for this might be option 60.
