I guess I am one of those people that think that other 6LoWPAN nodes must participate in RPL. Unless I am missing something RPL is the only game in town regarding meshing of wireless sensors. If they are not in RPL is there another means that they can use to form mesh connectivity to get to the LBR?
You interpretation is of course correct.

I have just read 6lowpan-nd-06.txt
Some things immediately jump out at me:
1) small packets are much more common, so DAOs may not fit into ND.
2) multicast is not assumed, so the Whiteboard is used.
3) nodes that are sleepy, are not going to be useful as members of
an RPL DAG, so really, it's about RPL between the Edge Routers.
It seems to me therefore that the only nodes in a 6lowpan that can
participate in a RPL DAG would be the edge router that runs a
Whiteboard.
I think you capture this in your above sentence. I do not think that
the 6LoWPAN routers will be speaking NR/NC between themselves along
their "backbone", but I could be wrong.
I also think that some other people may be thinking that many more
6LoWPAN nodes will participate in RPL than just the edge routers.
