Right. On a each local machine you can often override the default behavior. That default dynamically kicks in for all machines as soon as there's an IPv6 router on the LAN. Configurable? Sort of. Realistic solution to the cited problem? Not in your wildest dreams.
Well - not on my *wildest* dreams, no :-) But in some of my more modest dreams a draft RFC has appeared allowing the distribution of source and destination address preferences via DHCPv6. In my dream, it even has a name: draft-ietf-6man-addr-select-opt-08 Not a solution for SLAAC, though I suppose a similar extension would be possible in SLAAC. If you run a standard operating environment, the fact that source and destination address preferences are configurable means you can put it in your SOE right now.
