I too think this should be the default policy, there is no good reason to 
expose your MAC-address to the world.
But adding net.ipv6.conf.all.use_tempaddr=2 to /etc/sysctl.conf was not enough 
to get it working on my Ethernet interface from boot.
I also had to add net.ipv6.conf.default.use_tempaddr=2, and force ipv6 to load 
before before sysctrl using /etc/modules.
Perhaps the default should be changed in the kernel instead?

Ubuntu should activate the IPv6 privacy extension by default (echo 2 
>/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/use_tempaddr)
