The draft didn't seem to address what happens when the client sends in requests (and making the DHCP server remember this from a reconfigure-request seemed a bit odd -- why not have the relay include this in each Relay-Forw if this is 'needed').

Yes.   Also, why not just have an option that says "client is dual-stack, or not" and let the DHCP server decide what to do about it, rather than getting all specific about what it does with it?

Requires client changes, so it's understandable that we'd want to do it in relays.   Of course, there's a third unanswered question, which is "what about DHCPv4?"
