We dont have T1 and T2 values for IA having temporary addreses
but the draft says that the temporary addresses can be renewed.
So, if the client wishes to renew the adddresses, 
when should the client renew the addresses?
Does it mean that the application has to trigger the renew
in the case, if it need to use the address for some more time?

RFC 3041 says the mechanism of generating random Interface IDs,
for subsequent addresses for the same interface of the node.
Does the DHCP server need to implement this mechanism for
allocating temporary addresses to the client?

Probabably, we can add some text to state that once a temporary 
address is released or lifetime expires, the server should
forget the bindings, unlike the normal addresses.
This will be helpful in allocating different addresses for the
subsequent request from the same node.
