the PIO option in RA has several functions.

1) with the A-flag on, it is used by SLAAC.
2) with the L-flag on, it is used for onlink determination (prefix discovery).

"when there is no SLAAC" does that mean?
 - there is no RA
 - there is an empty RA (no PIO)
 - the PIO has A-flag off

if I understand your draft correctly, you want a DHCPv6 alternative to the RA 
PIO option.
generally we try to avoid duplicate mechanisms, so could you please give a use 
case?

cheers,
Ole
