For prefix redirection?

p1. I think this is better deferred to the -bis draft.

p2. I don't think it will be practical for CPE routers to send prefix redirections to other nodes on the WAN link in neighbor advertisements.  I think default routers on the WAN link should send ICMP redirects to hosts.  The validity check on ICMP redirects are a good idea.  Even better idea in the presence of SEND.
