"In da house", mDNS usually does the trick nicely for "I want to ssh
to my wife's laptop to fix her time machine backup".

As soon as you have a larger routed network, mDNS falls short, and 
(unless you have a windows domain) there are no existing mechanisms
to put a SLAAC v6 address into DNS...

Yes, thanks, IETF.  Well done.
