You're asking quite lot, why would company want to actively support 3rd party
SFP, they'd need to spend money testing them without getting revenues, I
know my company wouldn't do it.
Cisco does accept 3rd party SFP's though, but does not support them. I'm
happy with the situation and think it's very realistic and fair.

I was sitting around the other day thinking about how odd it is that in 2008 the BGP scanner still causes the CPU utilization to jump ridiculously high (on pretty much all routers I've seen..from 7200 to 128xx), and all of the various limitations of the route table sizes in various Cisco products. I realize these issues are either harmless or explainable ("just the way it is") I just think it is a strange/interesting thing to note that years later the same issues are still present in technology no matter how far up you go in the line.
