There aren't any. I think it must quite clear to most people that the
plain user of an internet connection couldn't care less whether it is
IPv4, IPv6 or RFC1149.

Yes, the link-local address can't be used like that - TBH, I don't
know why.
For ping6, you need to specify the interface:
ping6 -I ethX FE80::21E:BFF:FE08:4CCB
And that shall be _better_ than plain ol' ping?

To all the IPv6 proponents here: Don't tell users what one *can*
technically do. We've read it a thousand times, it's getting
annoying. Tell users what the advantage of switching to IPv6 is
*now* for home or SOHO scenarios.
