I'd consider "no external link at all" to be sufficient criteria to signal
"link down" internally.
(Which is how certain commercial platforms handle this - if "all L2 ports
in a given VLAN" go down, the "L3 routing interface" will also go down,
and I found that usually to be "what I expect and want to happen")
Now, I'm not saying that this would be trivial to do, but tremendously
useful :-)
