 In your previous mail you wrote:

   Francis was misguided on the issue.  DHCPv6 has no problem.  When it
   gets executed DHCPv6 will work.
   
=> I still disagree. DHCPv6 recognizes links using prefixes (an address
and prefix length pair). This doesn't work with multi-link subnets then
I propose to add a line saying DHCPv6 doesn't support multi-link subnets
in the DHCPv6 I-D "non-goals" section (multi-link subnets don't exist
today and we need DHCPv6 for two years ago).

PS: but I agree with Jim that to find a full solution for this issue
is not the job of the DHCPv6 team but the job of multi-link subnets
researchers.
