[j-nsp] BGP peering from a VIP address

Hi folks,

There is some internal debate here in my office today as to whether or not
Juniper can support a BGP implementation in conjunction with VRRP, as in,
BGP is sourced from a VRRP VIP address.

Now before everyone attempts to tear me a new one...  I should state that
I'm pretty sure this shouldn't be done and to do so would pretty much break
the protocol in every way imaginable... however, I am being told that Cisco
has some knobs to accomplish this and I just want to be certain if Juniper
can do something along these lines...

Thoughts?
