| You don't have to - just request a separate OSPFv2 opaque LSA and IPv6 OSPFv3 
LSA from IANA.
| Another alternative would be to extend the RI LSA to be multi-instance and 
relegate the variable length tags to an instance other than instance 0. 

again the question why i do have to ?
i can perfectly fit in single-digit as well as a few dozens of colors in a 
single RI LSA
- what is your concern - except that we may use inappropriate large space for 
TE ?
any reasonable implementation SHOULD restrict the node color set, such
that overwhelming the 64K of RI LSPs is not going to happen.
