> the hypothetical but plausible scenario

That's competly real scenario. My FreeBSD-based PPPoE BRAS'es run hundreds of
VLANs over lagg port-channels and each VLAN carries PPPoE frames only, no IP
traffic at all. Of course, I use LACP for failover (and load balancing too).
And LACP does not send its signalling traffic over each vlan (and should not).

Why don't people want to use already invented layer-2 signalling protocols but
try to invent a wheel every time?
