Any language that reduces site-local addresses to second-class citizens (or, worse, implies that they should not be used concurrent with global addresses) will give stack and application vendors an excuse to fail to support such configurations.
What do stack and application vendors need to do to support site-local addressing?
And what makes you think that they are doing those things now? The majority of stack and application implementations with which I am familiar make no distinction at all between site-local address and globals. This is appropriate if site-locals will be used only on non-globally connected sites (so, effectively, site-local == global).
