do this, but others here do).  For example, getting over the stateless
autoconfig religion (which was never fully thought out -- how does a
autoconfig'd device get a DNS name associated with their address in a
DNSSEC-
signed world again?) and letting network operators use DHCP with IPv6 the
way
they do with IPv4.

While I wouldn't call SLAAC a religion, I will say (again) that it works in
many cases for some people, today - and whether you consider SLAAC
"half-baked" or "slim-by-design" is a subjective matter.

In the meantime, I am also a proponent for letting ops use DHCPv6 ...
especially DHCPv6-PD!
