(1) Limit the scope of the IPv6 WG's problem, by
forbidding the use of site-local addresses
on globally-connected networks in the
scoped addressing architecture. This would
not preclude work in this area by other
groups within the IETF/IRTF, and we could
remove the restriction when the implications
are fully understood.
seems reasonable to me, as long as "globally-connected" includes
any IP network that is connected (directly or indirectly) via
IP to a network that is connected to the global IPv6 Internet.
I also doubt we can ever "remove the restriction" in the
sense that we expect apps that were built to treat all addresses
as global to run when they're exposed to a mixture of global
and scoped addresses.
