And no, I absolutely do not think we should try and wait for routable PI space, which seems to be the only other suggestion made on this list.

- the addresses proposed in draft-hinden appear to be strictly better than either the existing site-local or hijacked addresses. They can be filtered in routers. Attempts at uniqueness give us a reasonable hope of tracing the source of leaks. They don't conflict with existing addresses, so the leaks don't affect the connectivity or the traffic load of third parties.
In short, the proposed addresses cannot eliminate application level leaks, but they can definitely reduce their consequences, and do a much better job at that than the alternatives.
