I know a lot of people push next-hop-self, and if you're a large ISP with thousands of BGP customers is pretty much required to scale.
It's actually the polar opposite. If you are small, there are no compelling reasons to put IXP in IGP. If you are large, you may wish to have different IGP metric to two egress points in same peering router. In which case you should at very least have IP ACL in IXP interface which only allows LAN2LAN. -- ++ytti
