This is quite an interesting thing to do, and I think that it brings us
another step step closer to some kind of hybrid storing/non-storing mode.
DAO-projection is obviously the other step.

Many in the WG might not know, but at one point the WG thought that storing and
non-storing operation would be local choices, but it turned out not to work
that way.

I think we should use the root-announced (non-negotiated) capability.

I think that the useofrplinfo change affects only two (maybe) four of the 24
cases, and the case remains where we have an IPv6 Host only.
So I think it is better to Updates: useofrplinfo.
