Hi,
The main motivation for implementing MPLS TE is more on optimization of available bandwidth than the lack of it.Well I do not know of many networks,there is a little bit of activity in the form of  some testing in happening in my network.As soon as you setup an Engineered path by way of a MPLS TE tunnel all you MPLS VPN traffic would prefer the TE tunnel.

Im not too sure of the reoptimization feature you have mentioned.

Thanks and Regards,
Sunil Menon.
