Indeed; one of the more sane situations might be to have say anycast
name servers or full-service resolvers in the network and having them
talk OSPF to the first hop router. ISIS daemons on PC operating systems
are scarce, working ones hardly exist.

It is clear, though, that the path forward is ISIS; most people I've
spoken to roll it out (in greenfield/forklift situations) or migrate to it.
