I'd like to +1 this request, if this work landed in Juno, this would
mean Neutron would have 100% support for all IPv6 subnet attribute
settings, since slaac support landed in J-2.

I know that we're competing for bandwidth and asking for special
consideration, but I feel it's my role to advocate for the devs on the
subteam. 

Thank you for the consideration!
