Hi Lars,
I think that " The whole point of running MPLS is to
create networks in which paths are provisionable, so
this is usually not an issue." is only partially
correct. LDP-based MPLS network is not provisionable and
LSPs follow IP best route selection. Explicit signaling
of LSP is achievable in (G)MPLS by using RSVP(-TE)
signaling.

Greg, I think we can delineate provisioning from whether it 
is dynamic or explicit.

MPLS LSP's are all pre-provisioned, because of the FEC's 
created. Whether those FEC's are dynamically or explicitly 
provisioned is a separate issue.
