I am running into venders that do not support injection of a
delegated route when operating as a DHCPv6 relay (or server for that

any of the RFC's.  This is to deliver home ISP service, so it is very
important or return packets won't go to the client unless the route
is manually added as a routing protocol is not an option.  There
should be a MUST activity for this somewhere.

Anyone know what gives?

This is being blocked by a number of parties at the IETF because of
religious systemic antipathy towards DHCPv6.
