Since you're migrating to from EIGRP to OSPF, as an option, 
have you considered IS-IS as well? It certainly doesn't 
suffer from the "all Areas must connect to the Backbone 
Area" problem, so you can string the network along as wide 
as you want without worrying about "breaking it up".

Of course, always go with what you're more 
familiar/comfortable with. On our end, we chose IS-IS 
primarily for this very reason.

But I understand that it may not be for you.

Cheers,

Mark.
