I don't believe the procedure updating 5884 to change existing session
properties is called out in the -directed document.  I don't have a strong
opinion about the use case of whether such updates are desired or not.
That's a decision for the MPLS WG.  However, I do think such procedure needs
to be clear if it's desired.  This is part of Carlos' point.
