Amen to that. I've played around with the various loopback strategies, including using a gre tunnel that originates/terminates on the same PE. It worked, but didn't seem like a scalable solution. The conclusion I came to is that most MPLS scenarios assume you are using a separate PE/firewall to move traffic between global and vrfs (and probably even inter-vrf.) It would be great to have a simple global-vrf route exchange feature though.
