I've found management within a VRF painful, namely given that many
commands assumet the global table.

Hopefully I'll have a syswish going in soon, but I'd really like to
see a 'term vrf <name>' exec-mode command to switch between VRF's for
exec commands (i.e. traceroute, ping, copy, telnet, ssh) . As-is,
many/most of them are usuable either via their own (differing) command
line arguments or via source-interface config clauses, but a cleaner
switch would make training alot easier...
