> of course you have. My point isn't that v6 multi-homing is any different from v4 multi-homing. My point is that multi-homing is rare with v4 but very common and required for v6. So what's often not an issue at all on anybodies radar in a v4 network is something everybody has to deal with in a v6 network.
Multi-homing (connecting to multiple different networks) isn't required in IPv6 at all. Having multiple different addresses on the same subnet isn't multi-homing, and the link local address of fe80:: isn't a different network. Operating systems won't even use the link local address to establish a connection unless specifically forced to.
