"Don't use as a next hop in an ECMP bundle but use otherwise..." The problem
I'm having (to answer Joel's follow on question) is this isn't really a
"route," but specific to a particular route that's being used (even if
connected) as a next hop -- so it's not really a new "next hop" type, I
don't think... Rather, it would be a way to override the use of an existing
route for recursion by other routes -- I don't know if this is possible in
the current models.

Thoughts? 

:-)
