You may want to find http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-vyncke-6man-mcast-not-efficient-01 interesting to understand some challenges (actually wrong assumptions) posed by the use of layer-3 multicast by IPv6 (mainly for neighbor discovery) over a wired/wirelss infrastructure which has little link with the layer-3 multicast

This I-D could be the problem statement for solution I-D

Hope it helps
