To hopefully conclude this thread.
When reviewing this issue again, I did notice that we actually do have a complete registry for router flags:

https://www.iana.org/assignments/icmpv6-parameters/icmpv6-parameters.xhtml#icmpv6-parameters-11

In hindsight one could have argued that perhaps RFC5175 should have updated RFC4861 when it created the registry.
I don't think that issue is big enough to justify any further action on this topic.

Cheers,
Ole
