In your previous mail you wrote:

   On a given IPv6 Interface on a router, I understand that it is allowed
   to configure a global unicast address with an Interface_ID
   which is *different* from the Interface_ID of the Link Local Address.
   
   - is this something that should be discouraged
   or instead
   - can this be considered as normal practice e.g. for operator
   convenience ?
   
=> IMHO the second and if the software complains it should give a way
to setup the interface ID before to create the link-local address.

PS: I deeply dislike the uncontrolled autoconfiguration of a link-local
address to every interfaces a la KAME.
