But that's all in the "all software sucks" domain, not that much IETF 
standards can do about it.  Or am I misunderstanding you?

The general beef in the IETF IPv6 working groups seems to be that one
camp wants "everything that's needed to configure a host" in RA, and the
other camp thinks DHCP is good enough for everything and thinks having
to run RA as well is evil, and should not be done.  Or such.

I think people from both camps should be drowned somewhere, for refusing 
to acknowledge that networks in the real world out of their ivory towers 
*differ* in nature, and some would benefit from "just RA" while others 
might want "just DHCPv6".
