Integrate CSM into the Decentralized Validator Vault

I think this is a cool idea to add CSM into the Mellow Decetralized Validator Vault. This is a great resource of additional ETH inflow into CSM, besides directly from the Lido protocol itself, thus will allow to deposit all participants willing to join Lido operator set as a CSM operator faster, overall boosting Lido operators set decentralization and diversification.

On top of it, this will provide CSM participants with additional incentives from Obol and SSV, which is a great differentiating point within other protocols, attracting new permissionless operators.

I have a couple of questions here:

  1. How new ETH stake from DVV will be splitted between SimpleDVT clusters and CSM?
  2. Do we know a share of non-DVT and DVT operators within CSM? Seems like in some edge cases, for example, if non-DVT operator A runs 10 validators, and DVT-based operator runs 2 validators, the A will receive a bigger share of Obol and SSV points, although this is not fair. Or maybe I didn’t get the design?
