For example, can it propagate information such as "this is a guest network and this is an internal network" or "this is a prefix that I have tentatively assigned but do not own yet"? If not, then perhaps something more flexible like IS-IS would be better.

If the routing protocol were not dependent on the ip layer having already been bootstrapped that might the ease the complexity and depedancy graph during setup...
