Subject: GMPLS LabelSet question

In draft-ietf-mpls-generalized-rsvp-te-01.txt, within the section describing
the Label Set
object, the Label Type field is described as follows:

      Label Type: 8 bits

         Indicates the type and format of the labels carried in the
         object.  Values match the C-Type of the appropriate Label
         object.

It seems that the only valid value for this field is 2 as defined by the
Generalized Label
in section 2.2.  What is the point of this field since G-MPLS will ALWAYS
use the
Generalized Label?

Was the intention to allow a label object with C-Type 1 to be signaled using
G-MPLS?

Also, when will the updated GMPLS drafts be submitted?
