I was just about to respond to that in the session when we ran out of
time. I would vote for simply insisting that VMs run without the privacy
extension enabled, and only permitting the expected ipv6 address based on
MAC. Its primary purpose is to conceal your MAC address so that your IP
address can't be used to track you, as I understand it, and I don't think
that's as relevant in a cloud environment and where the MAC addresses are
basically fake. Someone interested in desktop virtualisation with
Openstack may wish to contradict me...
