for a one-off, it's probably fine.  But building a
product around multi-hop wouldn't be my first choice.

We prefer Layer 2 bundling technologies like 802.1AX, POS 
bundles or ML-PPP. 

However, some customers just can't support this, but have 
multiple links to us and need load sharing. In this case, 
eBGP Mulit-Hop is a reasonable use-case.
