There's no solution that is needed: that's like putting the cart before 
the horse.

IOW, state what you want to do, and then use the toolbox to achieve your 
goal.

In order for the stable/temporary approach to be fully successful, you 
need to be able to block incoming connections to the stable addresses.

As noted in draft-gont-v6ops-ipv6-addressing-considerations, that's 
non-trivial nowadays.

Not sure what you mean here.
