                 Self-formed according to rfc2464.
        G1: address formed by NEMOMR either from RA sent by Router, or
            by DHCPv6 considering Router is a DHCPRelay and Gateway is
            a DHCPServer.
        G4: ?
        TCA: Topologically-Correct Address, for Gateway.  It can be
             manually configured on Gateway, or DHCP, or stateless
             autoconf.

Right - Router is not fixed: it can move in a circular area of radius
25m. No more than that. Is this sufficient?

Mostly yes.

Ok, Router should be contacted from the Internet.  Then we should find 
some practical way to configure G addresses for Router too. I'm not sure 
how to come up with G addresses for Router, for the above topology.

I'm not sure how to configure G4 on Gateway either.
