You only discuss "what would break if we deprecate these flags". I have
no problems with the text that follows, but I DO have a very big
problem with changing these flags. You can't just go around and change
protocol specifications every few years just because it looks better
that way.
Besides, NOW is certainly not the time to do it, as DHCPv6 is finally
there, but hasn't seen much if any real-life experience yet, and
additional "other configuration" mechanisms are still under discussion
for at least one very important configuration item: recursive DNS
server addresses.
I implore this wg to venture out into the real world and ask operators
what they need to be able to use IPv6 rather than regurgitate the same
RFCs over and over. This goes double for v6ops.
