What your describing here sounds like logical routers vs VRFs.

What do you mean by that exactly?

Is there a perception here that 1 daemon : 1 VRF makes it impossible to share routes between VRFs? That shouldn't be the case though. E.g., a bgpd in one netns should still be able to communicate with a bgpd in another netns via a filesystem name-spaced socket, and exchange routes. So inter-VRF route sharing should still be quite feasible.

My hope is that the next release would provide support in at least zebra
and provide a platform of for those of us interested in doing multi-VRF
protocol work.

The issue for me is that if the only option we have for VRF is to continue with a fixed set of single-threaded processes, that we are going to entrench Quagga's reputation for not scaling up with increasing numbers of CPU cores.
