I'm not sure I understand this. I thought a key issue was the detection
of multicast router interfaces (which may be PIM routers, but need not
necessarily be queriers). Whereas this document only seems to talk about the
querier.

So - how does this document relate to using MRD to configure the upstream
interface (RFC4286)?
