Oops, yes, sorry, my OSPF is rusty. I want redistribute static to
(optionally) have the same effect as creating interfaces - i.e. type 1 LSAs.

Alternatively, allow inbound filtering of inter-area LSAs so I can just
take the default (that's less good because it will still get the LSAs, only
to discard them, but at least it won't have to process them).
