i use ipv6 today.

i don't want or like any of those features.  dhcpv6 works just fine.  i use
autoconf because i'm too lazy to switch over to dhcpv6.  a /120 per LAN would
be just fine for me if there weren't so much spec-inertia in the "/64 per LAN"
ideology.

that having been said, there's no way to put the IPv6 band back together at
this late date.  we're stuck with /64 per LAN, regardless of the goodness or
badness of that design choice.  i wish i'd known how to make A6/DNAME stick
in the face of opposition the way "/64 per LAN" did, but that's a different
war.
