Connecting a computer to the internet is a security risk.  
IPv4 is on by default, and so IPv6 should be on by default.
I want both to be handled the same way.

There is a use case for running IPv6 over an interface without
setting an address.  Configure a global IPv6 address on lo0, run
ospf6d on any physical interface and it will provide connection.
IPv6 autoconfiguration with link-local addresses is useful.
