But you agree that the above configuration is very rare, really just a 
"corner case".  Someone _might_ want it though.

Perhaps this behaviour should be configurable then?

If enabled (default), perform DIID only [and possibly skip for EUI64
addresses].  This is useful in scenarios where there is a large number of
addresses assigned in the nodes.

If disabled, perform DAD for every address without any optimizations.
