As far as I know, yes.  And it would indeed be an even better approach
here.

In our case, this is for a L2TP-terminated DSL setup, so if the line
(or something in the path) breaks, PPP keepalives will kill the interface, 
and since the routes are only coming from radius, it will work.

For the more generic "routing to a customer interface that does not 
proper signal path outage" this won't do, of course.
