lt- interfaces are definitely a way to do it.  In my case I put an lt-
interface in a VPLS instance that was paired to another lt- with "family
inet .." in a virtual router instance.  I had a routed VPLS for names
sake.  In my situation though the lt- interface doesn't move much
traffic.  I'm unsure of what might happen if you tried to move real
traffic through it.
