If you have two independent LANs, I can not see primary IPv4 for two
different set of peers (aka "subnets of next-hops") go over a single 
eBGP session to a RS located outside the subnet for at least one of them.

OTOH I've never been at an IXP that has different-mtu VLANs and "joint" RS,
so I can't speak from experience here.

Seems the draft needs to document edge cases like this.
