The only reason to use BOOTREQUESTv6 and BOOTREPLYv6 is the similarity between that name and the name of the BOOTP packet that DHCPv4 rides in.   If you are going to change the name, you might as well call it DHCPv4QUERY and DHCPv4RESPONSE or something.   Using the BOOTP name allows you to avoid confusion between DHCPREQUEST/DHCPREPLY and DHCPv4REQUEST/DHCPv4REPLY, but you could use QUERY/RESPONSE to avoid that just as well.

Anyway, I don't think BOOTPREQUESTv6 makes a whole lot of sense.
