Subject: [Idr] draft-bashandy-idr-bgp-repair-label-01: when does PE revert back to standard label?

After the link to the CE fails, the PE1 uses the repair label to send to PE2.
If the link to the CE is never restored, does PE1 ever use the regular label again?

Suppose the CE is first attached to PE1 and PE2.
Then it detaches from PE1 and attaches to PE3.
It will never reattach to PE1.

Now, PE1 is stuck using the repair label to PE2.
