I guess it would make more sense to add an option to NetworkManager
where you can enable or disable this flag. NetworkManager could enable
it per default then.
If this was implemented I'd even go one step further:
* Set /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/accept_ra to 0 per default (if I setup a
server somewhere I generally don't want to have autoconfig enabled unless I
choose so).
* Let NetworkManager set /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/$iface/accept_ra to 1 per
default (can be changed with an option).
* Let NetworkManager set /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/$iface/use_tempaddr to some
default value to be discussed (can be changed as well).
** Also affects: network-manager (Ubuntu)
