that would be a bug likely, as the capability is not specific to any of 
the protocol and they only act as messengers. But we can not mandate any 
cross protocols checking either.

not really. In IGPs we tend to use "advertise" more. If you prefer, I 
can change all to "advertise" or to "signal" for consistency.
