If the devices we're talking about have enough resources to run them, and
they have desirable properties that are useful in home networks, then what's
the problem with either of these? Home gateways these days are capable of
1Gbps hardware forwarding and have pretty fast CPUs.

For example, if there were a robust open-source version of IS-IS that didn't
take up too much RAM and flash, you could define TLVs to implement zeroconf
and you could get to something that works relatively quickly.
