Oh, great, that makes things easy :) I didn't realise you could do that.

Looks like what would work then is to plug the GPON handoff into an ME3600
and use the flexible vlan rewriting on that to ensure that the outer tag is
unique for my network, then aggregate it through our existing L2 access 
switches into an ASR1k doing access routing.

I think I must have been over-thinking the problem.

Many thanks,
