I've checked that Cisco routers remove route from FIB when interface
link goes down. I haven't checked Junipers yet.

My vote is that we should implement this functionality and make it
switchable via sysctl. I'd leave the default as is.

I like this idea as well, but you need to control how the routes would come back after the interface comes back up ? This seems more of the province of a routing daemon like quagga as opposed to a kernel feature no ?
