My suggestion is to poll the v6ops WG about this,
and if they don't see any need for such a behaviour,
remove the possibility when revising RFC2461.  In other
words, I agree with Bernard that having both autoconfigured
and DHCP configured hosts on the same prefix is probably
a bad idea.  OTOH, I don't have any operational experience
on such configurations.
