At least till a few months back -  vendors can keep me honest.   If a host does not support a PCP client, what host will issue PCP requests to a PCP server in the IPv6 CPE router?   Thus it makes sense to let the homenet WG deal with the PCP server req on the CPE router LAN and we ship rfc6204bis with the PCP client req that Alain Durand agreed with for DS-Lite use.  Thanks to Dave Thaler who helped prepare text for the specific PCP client req in the CPE.

In other words, you're telling me there's no point in implementing a PCP client for IPv6 simple security in a host operating system, because none of the IPv6 Ready CE routers will have PCP servers.  Good to know.
