If I understood correctly the problem is:

   "This is also gives this ability to attackers to obtain user's
    information by using simple approaches such as creating a fake
    website and use it as trap to find the user's IP addresses."

The proposed solution in the draft is to use a temporary Interface 
ID.  It mentions having a lifetime per application.  If I understood 
correctly the proposal introduces an application identifier.  How 
does the application identify itself to the lower layer when it needs 
to use an IPv6 address?
