I do hope cisco has commands on all platforms to augment all other 
protocol MTUs so one can emulate the "mtu 1500 / mpls mtu 1546" behaviour 
that is currently available.

The situation with devices on a subnet / L2 broadcast domain where some 
speak mpls and some not, where some are older devices that do not support 
mtu higher than 1500, needs this behaviour to avoid a network redesign.
