Just to give a heads-up before this is finalized, to give people ability 
to prepare or comment prior to this process is formalized in the IETF.

With corresponding changes to the route advertisement protocol as used
by radvd, so that routes can actually be advertised to autoconfigured
nodes? Or does that already exist and I just missed it when I was
looking?

Do you mean:

http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-ipv6-router-selection-02.txt

This has nothing to do with this subject (AFAICS), but one person just a 
couple of days ago asked about this and wanted to know whether anyone else 
is hacking this, and if not, whether he should go ahead.  We gave (as 
radvd maintainers) a thumbs-up.

If you're also interested in hacking this, contact me off-list, and I'll 
ask the other person whether he'd like to get some help..

(Obviously, the preferences will need support in the kernel too.)
