Precedence: list

Since we’ve gone for over two years without significant implementation
traction, I’ve added the “sparse-mode” of backward compatibility where the
OSPFv3 Extended-LSAs MAY only originated as needed for new functions and
backward compatibility is dependent solely on the limitations of those
functions. Please take a look - this is analogous to the direction taken
for OSPFv2 in 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-ospf-prefix-link-attr/

Thanks,
Acee
