Fred,

> The concept of embedding information in the 54 “must be zero” bits of the link local address is enticing, but may not prove 
> interoperable, given the “must be zero” definition of a link local address.

Also good input, but given that these link-local addresses are defined and intended
for the exclusive use of a specific IPv6-over-(foo) interface type, only interfaces that
understand the address format will process the addresses and they will understand
the usage of the 54 bits.

Thanks - Fred
