Peter,

Why do you need offset between label blocks used on these seldom SR routers? 
The common block is the only frame of reference, IMO.

I don't think so. Take the above situation as an example, in the index binding 
mode, you could allow the most SR routers to advertise its label range starting 
with zero to achieve the above effect (although it conflicts with the 
definition of label range). However, for the seldom SR router, what label range 
should it advertise?
