[PPE] Correct. The text can be made more explicit with the following
change 

"The OSPFv3 Domain ID is a 6-byte number and its default value is 0."

[PPE] Correct for the interpretation. The text can be changed from 

"The OSPFv3 Router ID is a 32 bit number as in OSPFv2.  This field
      is OPTIONAL and may be set to 0."
To 
"The OSPFv3 Router ID is a 32 bit number as in OSPFv2.  Setting this
field
      is OPTIONAL and  its default value is 0.

Thanks
