Can you come up with a better name than RLSDC? It appears this would
obviate the need for the recent MSD proposal but that is a much better
name.

Can you add a short section referencing the applicable section in this
document.

I was talking more on the level of usage of the capability than
advertisement. Since this is new, there should be any RI LSAs
considerations.
