Danny,

It will work, and you are correct, it is not a good design. Virtual links in
themselves are not a good design. They are more like a band-aid for a bad
design. The only time you should use virtual-links in the real-world is
during a migration period or to fix a segmented Area 0.

GRE tunnels would also work here. You can make the tunnel interfaces part of
Area 0 and connect the discontigous areas to Area 0 that way.

HTH,
