Xiaohu, PCEP and ISIS(OSPF) are quite different in their functionality and not meant to do the same thing. Wrt SR ecosystem, PCEP is optional, while IGP’s are mandatory. When it comes to a node capability, PCEP and IGP’s provide same information and fully aligned, however more granular, per link information is only available in IGPs, and this is as per design (not a bug). PCEP SR draft (which I’m co-author of) will be last called soon, please make sure you provide your comments to the PCE WG.
The intention of this thread is to last call draft-ietf-isis-segment-routing-msd, that has Type 1 defined and creates IANA registry for the future Types. I’d appreciate your comments specifically to the draft, and if you have got any technical objection, would be happy to address them. Thanks!

More specially, the MSD or MSD(type1) capability could be signaled via IGP, BGP or PCEP. If the semantic of MSD (type 1) as defined in your IGP-MSD draft equals the semantics of MSD as defined in PCEP-SR draft, I believe it'd better to iron out such terminology inconsistency ASAP.
