Dear all,

 	I think there is some discussion and work at IETF to define 
solutions.....

http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-dec-dhcpv6-route-option/
or
http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-droms-dhc-dhcpv6-default-router-00.txt

Describe valid engineering reqs to have a drafted at IETF, and you will 
find supporters...
