Are you suggesting something such as a possible BGPv2 that all gateways or designated regional gateways could perhaps tunnel broadcast between themselves? This would be interesting and may help with other route issues between those using RIPv2 <-> BGP amprnet sites.
Why tunnel at the gateway level?, let the other gateways run BGP. Problem solved.
How you get to the gateway could be IPIP, GRE, IPSEC, or you can run BGP yourself. Or even if you have a friendly peering location that lets you put a dish on the roof.
Treating this like is some kinda special VPN really holds amprnet back.
