Interesting.  But I'm not sure which of two scenarios you are describing:

1. There is always an MPLS path from ingress to egress, but the shortest 
path may not consist entirely of MPLS-capable nodes.

2. There isn't always an MPLS path from ingress to egress.  So if the 
ingress creates an MPLS packet, some intermediate node may need to 
re-encapsulate the packet  in IP, in order to get the packet delivered 
to the egress node.

Or is the scenario different from either of these two?
