I would rather call that everygoing noise a side effect of something 
else.



My biggest problem with this entire "discussion" is the complete lack
of respect for others way of configuring thing, or building setups.
Probably worse is the laughing of someones valid use cases by others.

"My way or the highway" kind of attitude on this entire RA vs 
<whatever>
discussion.



What is wrong with having something else than our _current_ RAs to 
provide
defaultgateway on a network if the operator wish so? Let that be DHCPv6 
or
dibbler?
