there is a similar text in section 8, but more work is required indeed.

One important note - TI-LFA requires some form of traffic steering. This 
can be achieved by enabling both IP and SR flex-algo and use SR FA only 
to protect IP FA, similar to protection of "unlabeled" traffic with SR 
MPLS. Or some alternative mechanism for enforcing the traffic on the LFA 
path is required.

yes, the flex-algo application uses Flex-algo specific link attributes 
as defined in base flex-algo draft.
