Read draft-farinacci-lisp-te Ron. A path CAN be chosen. And it is a super-set of functionality that MPLS-TE provides.

> Also, I am not sure that it is *always* a good idea to let the ITR choose the ETR through which traffic enters the destination LISP site. A discussion of when this is and isn't a good idea might be appropriate in the intro document.

The intro document should not be subjective. We should have learned from previous mistakes on this topic.
