Can you point me towards a hint on how you implement import/export filters in OSPF on IOS XR?
Are you referring to 'distribute lists'? Another thing that is a bit quirky from my standpoint is why when the remote router gets knocked offline BFD on the OSPF process doesn't kill the route immediately. It seems like it takes 15-20 seconds for the route to be removed entirely from OSPF from when the transport goes down.

Filtering in link state routing protocols is a bit of a misnomer, technically speaking... but, you can use import/export filters on routers with OSPF and IS-IS. It would not necessarily limit the LSA/LSP flooding scope, but you end up with the desired outcome (all manner of caveats apply). All that said, the usefulness of an IGP is in its homogeneous view of the network from and by all participating nodes. Bad things can happen when one partitions IGP's, especially in an unintended way. As you say, BGP is better for this kind of thing, as typically, IGP's should carry infrastructure prefixes, and you don't really want to filter those as they provide basic router-to-router connectivity.
