Open to suggestions.

Maybe adding a "ipaddr6" below "ipaddr" in the interface configuration menu.

Also, do you happen to know what the RFC number is for IPv6 address format? I
need to know all the special "features" (for example, I know you can specify
"::1" for localhost, but can you simply omit octets at-will? e.g., ::ff:12:00:::
?)
