Okay, I don't mind the policy.  But then, the addr-select draft should
refer to RFC 2373, instead of the scoping architecture draft:

   Multicast destination addresses have a 4-bit scope field that 
   controls the propagation of the multicast packet. The IPv6 
   addressing architecture defines scope field values for node-local 
   (0x1), link-local (0x2), site-local (0x5), organization-local (0x8), 
   and global (0xE) scopes [9]. 
                           ^^^ this should be RFC 2373.
