I don't want to do this, at least, unconditionally.
Options (not exclusive):

I like the flexibility of this solution, but given that the only part of the RFC
that we're missing on at the moment is that we SHOULD disable the interface on
DAD failure for a link-local address, I would think this scheme would be good:
< 0 : ignore, and del address from interface (current behavior)
= 0 : disable interface for dad failure for a link-local address
> 0 : disable interface for dad failure for any address

Just a friendly reminder that such a scheme should only be
applied to autoconfigured addresses. A manually configured
duplicated address should not bring down the whole interface.
