Hey Chad,

It is extremely helpful to be able to do things like put communities on static routes.  Even protocols that don't use communities can leverage them in the export policy, the community just isn't announced.  Ditto for import policies.

You don't need to worry, these two issues have nothing in common. What
you're talking about is very high level concept and it implies nothing
about the underlaying architecture.

Having said that, why on earth no tags/communities on direct/connected
routes on any(?) platform. It dilutes usefulness in static routes as
well, as you're still going to need to have logic to provision
prefix-lists, so might as well do it same way for statics and directs.
