[EFM] Sending Dying Gasp frames before discovery completes

Hi,

Does anyone have a rationale for the statement in 57.3.2.2.4 that critical events other than link fault cannot be sent to the OAM peer before discovery is complete?  I'd like to be able to unconditionally send Dying Gasp when my PSU fails, because that is a low-level function which benefits from simple, unconditional processing.

Thanks,
        -- John
