So this is done on the client?   Is preference assigned to different 
classes of DHCP server (e.g., v4 vs. v6) or different server 
identification information, or what?   I can envision a table on the 
client that contains a list of server ids and preferences, although 
this seems not so helpful in the sense that the client now has to be 
configured before it can use the network.
