IMHO, securing ND Proxy for fe80::/64 case is out of scope.
AFAIK (e.g. on FreeBSD, Debian), there is no proxied DAD process for
fe80::/64 based address in a multilink scenario because a router is
able to uniquely differentiate two nodes having the same Link Local
address on two different links: that's why when you want to ping one
node using its Link Local address from a router you have to specify
the interface of the router connected to the node also.

Cheers.
