Julien -

My position on WG adoption of draft-hegde-isis-advertising-te-protocols 
(opposed) and the reasons why have been stated in an earlier post to the list.

draft-hegde-isis-advertising-te-protocols is discussing how to signal whether 
an application which makes use of link attribute advertisements  is enabled on 
a link. For the purposes of this discussion the application is specifically 
RSVP.

Your post is discussing a quite different thing. Given that RSVP is enabled you 
are asking/suggesting that we might want to also signal certain specific 
capabilities of RSVP - which is a qualitatively different thing.
I believe that is out of scope for draft-hegde-isis-advertising-te-protocols 
(and draft-ietf-isis-te-app).
