Thanks for this incredibly helpful comment.

Please read up in the mailing list archives about real-world networks
and why bfd for static would help a lot in certain environments.

There is nothing in the design of BFD that has serious problems with 
using it for static - consider "static route" just another routing protocol
that can be signalled when a link becomes unavailable.  Not very much 
different from what happens when the link state goes down -> static routes 
are removed.

(But with that l33t user name, you've propably never seen a *real* Router
- on BSD systems, this is certainly not so easily implemented).
