Finally tested this.

Root guard only blocks 1 vlan at a time.

So they claim superior root for both common vlans and
our local vlans.

And we claim superior root for our local vlans.

The result is that the join points blocks only our
local vlans. We don't need to send local vlans'
traffic to the join points so the blocking is OK.
And the common vlans remains open!

Long live IOS!!

Everyone (my manager and service provider) is happy
now.
