Agreed.  The only reason for doing it are:
-academia still considers it an option
-it is such a small amount of work (relativly speeking)
-some of the foundations surrounding CR-LDP can be used for RSVP-TE
 (mostly the api for creating/removing TE tunnels, and the notifications
 scheme that needs to be in place).
