Can you elaborate on this point? One of us is missing something and Murphy's Law says that quite possibly it's me. Jim's point, which you've quoted above, is that he desires for the RR to be the only control plane entity in the network which knows by configuration what the "route-target of interest" is. As such, the control plane path from the PE to itself, as it were, is necessarily PE->RR->PE, since the PE doesn't know that it's interested in its own routes. To make the terminology slightly less tormented, the desired control path is VRF1_on_PE->RR->VRF2_on_PE. The VRF1->VRF2 on PE path isn't feasible in this use case because PE doesn't know that this relationship exists between the two VRFs, only the RR knows that. (Of course that path is feasible if the use case admits of configuration on the PE.)
