But a little bit harsh for a link that might just have missed one/two
Hellos... it might be the only link between two parts of the network.

I can adjust the content of the TC my local router is producing... at
the moment I am experimenting with a mechanism that will (as soon as a
link is overdue based on Hello-Interval) use a similar "penalty" to
the outgoing link metric in the local database than the metric
algorithm (slightly modified DAT at the moment) does on the incoming
one based on the time interval... which means this penalty will be
instantly gone a new PacketBB packet arrives from the neighbor.

It works quite well if both ends of the link run the same metric algorithm.
